Manage episode 430200204 series 3526899
Dr. Lisa Mosconi's latest study reveals fascinating insights into how menopause affects the brain. What's the brain got to do with it?
Estrogen decline is a central feature of menopause, leading to many physical changes (hot flashes and night sweats), including neuropsychiatric effects such as brain fog, trouble concentrating, depressed mood, agitation, anxiety, overwhelm, and lack of motivation. This groundbreaking study demonstrates an increase in estrogen receptor activity in postmenopausal women.
Can this predict menopause? Mood disorders? Cognitive function? 🤔
