Zaiba and Uzma talk about expected symptoms of “the change,” and what exactly that is and is NOT. Menopause and genitourinary syndrome of menopause are the topics of the day. Super exciting, right? It IS! If we aren’t in the neighborhood of these things happening to us, we can at least walk our moms through it for sure, and they certainly deserve it. If you love an older mom out there, share this episode with her! God knows she won’t talk to her doctor or to us about it! Don’t forget to listen to our public service announcements for preventive health during the last third of this episode.We brush on vaginal rejuvenation do’s/don’ts and “should we even”…..but mostly: hormones, cancer and osteoporosis risk, and treatments for symptoms are also discussed, so not to worry: there’s hope!  Links: 1.    Genitourinary syndrome of menopause: https://www.acog.org/womens-health/faqs/vulvovaginal-health2.    Vaginal symptoms to know about: https://www.aafp.org/afp/2018/0301/p321.html3.    Treating Menopausal Symptoms: https://www.aafp.org/afp/2016/1201/p884.html 4.    Purchase a copy of Love Meets Life: www.mommyingwhilemuslim.com5.    Email: mommyingwhilemuslim@gmail.com6.    FB: Mommying While Muslim page and Mommyingwhilemuslim group7.    IG: @mommyingwhilemuslimpodcastSupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/mommyingwhilemuslimpodcast)
