In this re-released episode of CME on the Go, originally published on 9/2/2025, our hosts delve into menopause, providing family physicians with essential insights, treatment options, and the latest research findings. While discussing hormone replacement therapy, non-hormonal treatments, and the interpretation of the Women's Health Initiative, the hosts emphasize patient-centered care and the natural progression of menopause. This episode aims to equip physicians with practical tools and knowledge, enhancing their ability to support patients through this critical stage of life. Learning Objectives Recognize the spectrum of menopausal symptoms across age groups, including premature menopause, and assess appropriate treatment and contraceptive options. Evaluate the risks and benefits of hormone therapy in postmenopausal women, including red flags that warrant closer monitoring or alternative management. Recommend evidence-based non-hormonal strategies for managing menopausal symptoms and support patient-centered conversations that normalize and destigmatize the menopause experience.
