Last week in Kaunas, the Lithuania Menopause Society held its second scientific-practical conference, “Menopause in Practice: from Neurology to Oncology.” Almost 300 specialists from different fields joined us, in the room and online.👩⚕️
Many experts from Lithuania and abroad gave presentations, including neuroscientist Laura Stankeviciute, PhD (University of Gothenburg) and Dr. Peter Greenhouse FRCOG FCSRH ADHD , a menopause and women’s health specialist from the UK.
We discussed:
🟢 and brain health
🟢 during the menopause transition
🟢weight change and its mechanisms
🟢menopause after , not only breast cancer
🟢prescribing in complex clinical situations
crosses every specialty. A woman with migraine goes to a neurologist, with weight changes to an endocrinologist, after a cancer diagnosis to an oncologist. Each doctor sees only part of the picture.
After cancer, many women and doctors are afraid to even talk about MHT. Sometimes it really isn’t an option, but often it’s worth looking at the evidence together, because every woman deserves that conversation.
Thank you to all the speakers, participants and organisers!🤍🌿
