“In the Ladies’ Room with Dr. Donnica” is the only public ladies' room you can enter any time without ever waiting on line! Hosted by women’s health expert and media commentator Donnica Moore MD, the podcast will feature real conversations, with real women, about really intimate issues. They may be embarrassing, sad or funny, but they will always be
interesting & informative. You know, like the best conversations you've ever had in ladies' rooms with your best friends. . .or total strangers. . .and a physician!

With a wide variety of guests with “been there, done that” expertise, Dr. Donnica discusses the health and wellness topics women often talk with her about in the ladies’ room. . . after speaking engagements, media
briefings, at events, or just because they happen to be chatting anonymously while waiting on line or over the sink. Generally, these topics tend to be things that are embarrassing; issues Dr. Donnica calls “the Toilet Talk topics” (anything related to bowel or bladder issues, gas, bodily functions, periods, discharges, etc.); questions related to sex and intimacy; subjects women are uncomfortable discussing in public or in “mixed company”; challenges women are struggling with; or anything top of mind or in the news. In each topic, we add our Top Tips about that topic as well as a call to action.

130: “The Talk” 2.0: Menopause with Stephanie Faubion MD

Nov 9, 2020

Dr. Faubion is the Professor and Chair of the Department of Medicine at Mayo Clinic and the Director of their Center for Women’s Health. Stephanie is the Medical Director of The North American Menopause Society. She has come up with her own version of “the talk”. No, not an awkward conversation between you and your parents talking about menstruation and sex. Dr. Stephanie Faubion has developed a new version of “the talk” to get women information about menopause. She goes over everything from the definition of menopause to what to expect from it. Stephanie encourages women to talk to their doctors in their 40s to prepare for what’s going to happen during menopause. She has found that a lot of women are not even aware of some of the symptoms of menopause beyond hot flashes. The more informed women are when going into menopause, the better equipped they can be to work with their doctor to be ready for it. She goes over different options women have to combat symptoms that may come from menopause.
