A menopause expert, often referred to as a menopause specialist, can play a pivotal role in helping individuals navigate this significant life transition. Menopause, typically occurring in women in their late 40s or early 50s, marks the end of the reproductive phase and comes with a range of physical, emotional, and hormonal changes. Here are five key ways a menopause expert can help you:
Personalized Treatment Plans
Menopause is not a one-size-fits-all experience. A menopause expert can assess your unique symptoms, medical history, and overall health to create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your needs. This may include hormone replacement therapy, lifestyle modifications, dietary recommendations, or other interventions designed to alleviate symptoms such as hot flashes, mood swings, and vaginal dryness.
Hormone Management
Hormone fluctuations during menopause can lead to a variety of symptoms, including mood disturbances and bone health concerns. A menopause expert can monitor your hormone levels and provide hormone replacement therapy when necessary, helping you maintain a balanced hormonal environment and reduce the severity of symptoms.
Educational Support
Understanding what is happening in your body during menopause is crucial for managing the transition effectively. A menopause expert can provide comprehensive education about the physical and emotional changes associated with menopause. They can address your questions and concerns, empowering you to make informed decisions about your health.

Management of Health Risks
Menopause can be associated with an increased risk of certain health issues, such as osteoporosis and cardiovascular disease. A menopause specialist can assess your risk factors and develop strategies to mitigate these risks through lifestyle changes, appropriate medications, and regular health screenings.
Emotional Support
The emotional aspect of menopause is often overlooked but can be challenging for many women. Mood swings, anxiety, and depression can be common during this time. A menopause expert can provide emotional support, recommend counseling or support groups, and even prescribe medication if necessary to address emotional well-being.

“Dr. Schultz is extremely thorough with diagnosis and treatment while her testing is extensive. She has a wealth of knowledge about hormone replacement and areas relating to this. Her bedside manner is refreshing and she never rushes you out of her office. If you have ever considered looking into hormone replacement you would be well advised to start with Dr. Schultz first”

“Since I became a patient of Dr. Schultz and FINALLY found someone who could balance my hormones, I HAVE FELT BETTER THAN I DID WHEN I WAS 20!!! I swear this is true!! Because of her diagnostic genius, the level of bioidentical hormones she has fine-tuned to my individual needs have changed my life and restored me to be the best “me” I can be! Dr. Schultz is not just a doctor, I call her my HEALER 🙂 She LISTENS to me, she educates me and encourages me to take good care of myself and to make good choices, and then she allows me to make my own decisions and choices, because she respects that I am an intelligent adult and the expert on my own 58-year-old body. She treats me as a peer and her PARTNER in maintaining my own wellness, and she respects and cares about me! Our appointments start and end with a hug, and I leave her office feeling uplifted, understood, inspired, strengthened and healed in body mind and spirit. She is very holistic, understanding that we are not just a cluster of symptoms, but that in order to have healthy bodies we must also address our issues, belief systems, and thoughts. Dr. Schultz is a wise and wonderful teacher and I am blessed to have her on my path:) And her staff is awesome too!”
