In-Home Expert Guided Menopause Education

Womanhood Charlotte is a one-of-kind menopause education program modeled as a "party" for you and your friends inside your living rooms.  Your gathering is held in the comfort of the hostess's home to create an intimate space where women can learn, connect, and feel at ease engaging in conversations specific to the complexities of menopause. During your party, woman gain valuable knowledge that can be applied to everyday life to not only survive, but THRIVE, in perimenopause and beyond.  

Prior to your party, we will contact you to discuss the topics you and your guests prioritize.  We will optimize the 2-3 hours we have together to ensure plenty of time to socialize, learn together and answer the important questions.  We customize each Womanhood party to meet the unique needs of your group.  Our aim is to ensure each person leaves our conversations with questions answered and voices heard.

As medical professionals, we value and deliver fact-based and science-driven information.  Important topics include the fundamentals of the female reproductive anatomy, menopausal hormone changes with its related physical & emotional changes, risks & benefits of hormone replacement therapy, brain health, and bone health.  We also uncover details on the menopausal changes that impact sleep, diet, exercise, mood, and intimacy that effect a woman's daily functioning.  We balance this discussion with evidence-based and practical tips to best navigate those changes.  

Note: We do NOT offer medical advice. Our conversations are for informational purposes only. You should discuss specific health concerns with your doctor.
