5 Questions Every Woman Should Ask Her Doctor About Menopause (Part 1 of 2)

Most women are told to “just deal with it” when they bring up menopause symptoms like brain fog, exhaustion, or sudden weight gain. But here’s something most people don’t know: nearly 80% of doctors receive no formal training in menopause.

That means millions of women are being dismissed, misdiagnosed, or prescribed treatments that don’t address what’s really going on.

In this week’s episode of The Mr. Menopause Show, I’m breaking down the 5 crucial questions every woman should ask her doctor about menopause, and why those questions are essential to getting real answers, real options, and real relief.

This is Part 1 of a special 2-part series designed to help you take charge of your menopause care. In this first part, I walk you through each of the five key questions, why they matter, and how asking them could completely change how you experience menopause support.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode

• How to find out if your doctor truly understands menopause care
• What to ask to get personalized guidance—not one-size-fits-all advice
• The truth about HRT and non-hormonal treatment options
• Why protecting your heart, bones, and brain should be part of every menopause plan
• How to start creating a long-term strategy for your menopause journey

Why This Conversation Matters

Menopause isn’t just a phase—it’s a significant stage of life that deserves informed, compassionate care.
Asking the right questions can uncover whether your doctor is equipped to guide you or if it’s time to find one who is.

Your health, confidence, and quality of life are too important to leave in the hands of outdated information or rushed appointments.

This episode will help you step into your next appointment prepared, informed, and empowered to advocate for yourself.
