This recording answers many of the common questions women have about these changes – Are they normal? How do I know if it’s the hormone changes that are affecting my mood, or all the other things going on in my life, including my menopause symptoms? What is the difference between feeling sad and being clinically depressed? When should I see my health care provider about these changes? What treatment options are available to me?
