00:00Women don't realize that they're actually going through menopause or going through perimenopause.
00:05They don't realize what's happening and therefore they don't even realize there's a conversation to be had.
00:11So number one is so important to understand that, I'm going to use a quote from Benjamin Franklin
00:16and I'm going to revise his quote a little bit so you understand the significance of it.
00:20There are two things that are certain, death and taxes.
00:25Well, we're going to revise that because for all women, there are three things that are certain, death, taxes and menopause.
00:32If you are a woman, you will make the transition.
00:36The important part is, are you aware that the transition is going on?
00:40And in order for that to happen, there have to be conversations in the medical field.
00:44We need to do a better job of actually educating women as they're coming in for their well woman exams.
00:50We should be preparing them for what to look for, but also conversations socially.
00:55The more we talk about it, the more we engage, then the more opportunity women have to be educated.
