The MENOPAUSE TRANSITION - IHC Virtual Educational Series

Reminder if you haven’t already reserved your spot.
April 5th 6:30-7:30 pm (via zoom)
hosted by Dr. Erin Rurak ND, NCMP
Hot flashes, mood swings, sleeplessness, a reduction in libido, and pain during sex are just some of the symptoms that women may experience during the menopause transition. It’s a transition that all women will face. Unfortunately, many women go through this life phase with little more than the occasional complaint to close friends and family - many whom advise to grin and bear it - and late-night internet dives.
Dr. Erin Rurak, ND, an experienced doctor certified as a North American Menopause Practitioner, will help shed light on the menopause transition, and insights on how best to manage the many symptoms experienced. Wear some comfy clothes, bundle up on your own couch and have a cup of tea ready, as we will end the discussion with an open question and answer period. What an opportunity! This is intended to be the first in an ongoing IHC Virtual Educational Series.
Again, to reserve your space, email info@integratedhealthclinic.com and type MENOPAUSE TALK in the subject line.

Thank you to the 38 individuals who have signed up for monthly donations as part of our Hearts for Hospice Monthly Giving Program! Can you help us reach 40 monthly donors?
Donating monthly allows you to make smaller, recurring gifts, which creates a big impact over time. It's a convenient way to give that provides our organization with predictable revenue to ensure our professional grief and palliative programs and services are available, free of charge, to our community throughout the year.
