  I'm honored

  I am pleased to announce that I have been appointed to The North American Menopause Society Foundation Board.  The North American Menopause Society (NAMS) is the leading nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting the health and quality of life of women through an understanding of menopause.  

  NAMS is a terrific organization, and I look forward to making important contributions to the Foundation.

  The Estrogen Dilemma

  There was a terrific article in The New York Times Magazine this past Sunday about estrogen and menopause written by Cynthia Gorney. It’s well worth reading and sharing. Here is a link to the article: http://www.nytimes.com/2010/04/18/magazine/18estrogen-t.html

  The Menopause Journey & Journal Begins...

  I’m a doctor. A gynecologist, to be specific. My specialty and passion is helping women manage the menopause transition. Mostly women over 40. Women like me.

  In my practice, I can only help a limited number of patients each day. But now, with this new blog, I’ll be able to help more women. Hopefully, that includes you.

  Quite simply, I want to share information with you that will help you live a healthier, happier life. And the first piece of information I want to share is about me…

  I started experiencing hot flashes, night sweats and interrupted sleep at the age of 44. Luckily, I knew what was going on and what to do about it. Yet too many women don’t …

  • they don’t have access to a specialist, or…
  • they’re confused by the misinformation they see online, in advertising or on the news, or…
  • they know how to stay healthy, but they need some gentle reminders to stay on course, or…
  • they don’t have time to keep up with all the news on health

  Further, too many women struggle at midlife – with physical, emotional and personal issues. Yet these should be the best years of our lives. We have the knowledge and experience to really understand what is important in life – and should have the vitality to live it fully.

  So I hope I can help these women – and help you too.

  Let me share some News and Views with you.

  I hope you’ll join me on this journey — and together we’ll enjoy greater health and happiness.

  Will you travel with me? I hope you will. (Click on the “subscribe” button above if you’re interested.)

  Until we meet again …

  Be well,

  Tara Allmen, MD
