Menopause is the most misunderstood stage of a woman’s life. Dr. Chris Creatura, aboard-certified OB/GYN with over three decades of experience, is a nationally recognized expert in menopause, sexual health, and adolescent gynecology. She joins Inside the Wellspace with Cathy O'Brien to dismantles the myths and misinformation surrounding menopause, perimenopause, and women’s hormonal health. Drawing on decades of clinical experience and advocacy, Dr. Creatura explains how hormonal shifts—especially the overlooked role of androgens—impact women’s bodies, minds, and overall well-being. She discusses the benefits of hormone replacement therapy (HRT), why women are too often misinformed or dismissed by the medical system, and how empowering women with science-backed information can lead to better health outcomes—and even economic gains for society at large.
