Postmenopausal Care

Enjoying All That Life Has to Offer

Many women aren’t aware that menopause refers to their final menstrual period. Or, that it’s not confirmed until you’ve missed your period for 12 months. During that time (and after), your body doesn’t make as much estrogen and other hormones. And, it’s those changing levels of hormones that bring on many of the symptoms associated with menopause.

Fortunately, there are many effective therapies to not only help you cope with any uncomfortable symptoms but also help you feel like yourself again. At Emory Healthcare, our OB-GYNs are dedicated to helping you find answers that help you enjoy all life has to offer.

Feel Like Yourself Again with Proven Menopause Therapies

Every woman has a different experience after menopause. Some women may feel relief at being done with perimenopause and the irregular periods it brings. Others may experience painful, uncomfortable and seemingly embarrassing symptoms. Feeling anxious and depressed is also common as women transition out of one phase of life and into another.

Our team is dedicated to offering only the best and proven therapies to help you manage symptoms and find relief. We follow the latest guidelines on evidence-based care and stay up to date on the newest, proven postmenopausal care therapies. We then use this knowledge to guide your care and help you better understand the newest trend or so-called miracle cure for postmenopausal women.

Together, we’ll find the safest and most effective therapy to the symptoms you’re experiencing, which may include:

  • Difficulty sleeping
  • Hot flashes
  • Mood changes
  • Night sweats
  • Pain during sex
  • Sexual health
  • Urinary incontinence
  • Vaginal dryness

We also understand that postmenopausal care goes beyond hormone changes. That’s why we take a holistic approach. We’ll check in on your mental health, heart health, bone health and discuss any concerns you may have about your overall health. Then, we’ll connect you with the specialists and care you need, right here at Emory, to help you feel like yourself again.

Unmatched Care to Give You Answers

Many of our OB-GYNs are certified by the North American Menopause Society (NAMS) which means they have demonstrated their expertise in the field of menopause care and a dedication to delivering high-quality care for women. Becoming NAMS certified requires passing a rigorous examination and participating in continuing medical education related to menopausal care for women. At Emory Healthcare, we are eager to share this experience and knowledge with you.
