This will be short a sweet. Many women my age are going through peri menopause if not full menopause. The symptoms are nuts and no one talks about it. Brain fog, weight gain, horrible and irregular periods, heart palpations, to dry skin. Many woman if not most woman are dismissed by their primary care physicians and OBGYNS. Hormonal changes causes all sorts of issues in the teenage years as well as postpartum so why would menopause be any different?

It got me thinking about individuals that have limited language or who are nonspeaking. How many females are on anti depression medications, ADHD medications, behavioral modification drugs, having big changes to behavior plans? What if we could stop chemically restraining people with disabilities and just start HRT?

Thoughts?
