In Your Menopause Era - Additional Resources
Thank you for your attendance at the watch party for M Factor last week. What an incredible evening! The documentary was extremely well done, the panelist discussion was rich, and being in a sold out auditorium with 300+ women in “Our Menopause Era” felt powerful.
We hope this is the beginning of many more gatherings and much needed conversations like this in our community.
As promised, we wanted to share a few follow up resources with you:
Victoria Gynecology Website
This webpage has a comprehensive list of evidence-based menopause resources and includes the ones that were referenced at the event. Here are a couple more books and a website to consider as well:
Better Sex Through Mindfulness - Dr. Lori Brotto
Better Sex Through Mindfulness Workbook - Dr. Lori Brotto
Michelle Lyons - pelvic floor physiotherapy recommendations
