58: The neuroscience of menopause with Dr Sarah McKay

Are your menopause symptoms really in your head? Or more precisely, in your brain?
This week I chatted with my good friend, selfie buddy and fellow Kiwi, Dr Sarah McKay.
Sarah is an Oxford University-educated neuroscientist, presenter of ABC Catalyst, director of The Neuroscience Academy, and author of The Women's Brain Book and her latest book, Baby Brain. Who loves nothing more than deep diving into the neuroscience of health, hormones and happiness.
We explore menopause from a brain health perspective, focusing on the neurobiology of hot flushes, sleep, mood and brain fog.
You will hear us talk about:
- Ocean swimming and my favourite selfie
- How during menopause, the upper ‘hot’ threshold level of your neural thermostat moves down and the lower ‘cool’ threshold moves up, so your neural thermostat narrows
- What happens in the brain during a hot flush
- The need for more research and studies that include women
- Why brain fog during menopause is common
- How thermoregulation impacts sleep
"I wonder how many people would let their daughters go through puberty so ill-informed?"
