About this episode

S.E. Cupp discusses the often-ignored topic of perimenopause with expert Dr. Mary Clair Haver, addressing myths and truths about women's health.

Why, in this day and age, is there still such a shroud over women's health? It's wild that half of the planet experiences perimenopause (and its varied symptoms) and yet there's very little public and private discussions about it! If you're a close listener of the show, you'll know perimenopause has come up in conversations with Sherry Shepherd and Heather Dubrow, among others. There’s obviously a need. Because saying the quiet things out loud is what SE loves to do, she's dedicating a whole episode of Off the Cupp to perimenopause, the myths, the honest truths, and what can help! Joining S.E. is resident expert Dr. Mary Clair Haver, a board certified OBGYN and founder of Mary Claire Wellness, which focuses on women's health in midlife. She also has several books out on the subject, including The New Menopause and The New Perimenopause . So, let's get comfy — while we get uncomfortable — and dive in!
