Preconception to Menopause

This presentation addressed key phases related to both a woman’s fertile years and her menopausal years. In the fertile years, supporting optimal pregnancy during the months prior to conception, supporting regular ovulation and attending to egg quality are all vital aspects of preconception and pregnancy. In the perimenopausal/menopausal years, we focused on quality of life and symptom management with botanicals.

Botanicals discussed included Chaste tree, Rhodiola, Tribulus, Red raspberry, Maca, Black cohosh, St. John’s wort, Valerian and Kava.
