Join Dr. Matt Van Auken, MD, MPH, ABOIM, DipABLM, E-RYT, YACEP for an empowering workshop focused on understanding and managing perimenopause and menopause through the time-tested principles of Ayurveda.
This workshop is designed for anyone approaching or in the experience of menopause. We’ll dialogue about symptoms and treatments, hormones, health risks and more. While it centers the experiences of women, it is inclusive of all people with female reproductive systems, regardless of gender identity.
