In this episode of 'Secrets of Powerful Women', Dr. Sara Girardi, a leading urologist, discusses the often-overlooked aspects of women's health, particularly focusing on menopause, urinary tract infections, and incontinence. She emphasizes the importance of understanding the changes that occur in women's bodies during menopause and how these changes can lead to various health issues. Dr. Girardi advocates for the use of vaginal estrogen to address these issues and highlights the need for women to seek treatment rather than accept discomfort as a normal part of aging. The conversation also touches on innovative treatments for incontinence and the emotional impact of these health challenges on women. Dr. Girardi's insights aim to empower women to reclaim their health and well-being.
