Menopause is a natural phase in a woman’s life but many myths still abound. Wilton Library welcomes Dr. Siobhan Dolan and Dr. Carol Fucigna, leaders of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Stamford Hospital and lifelong advocates for women’s health. They will present an overview of the many health issues women may face as they move through menopause. Using data and best practices from the North American Menopause Society (NAMS), Dr. Dolan and Dr. Fucigna will present the facts and dispel the myths. They will also encourage an open conversation about this important topic.
