Hormones, Cancer Risk, and the Truth About Menopause with Dr. Corinne Menn | HFYH # 124
In this episode, Dr. Vonda Wright sits down with Dr. Corinne Menn, a board-certified OBGYN, Menopause Society Certified Practitioner, and 23-year breast cancer survivor who brings both clinical expertise and lived experience to the menopause conversation. A BRCA carrier and surgical menopause patient, Dr. Menn is a fierce advocate for women navigating cancer risk, premature menopause, and hormone health. Together, they unpack the major gaps in menopause care—from the underuse of hormone therapy (only 4–5% of women use it) to the widespread misinformation among healthcare providers. Dr. Menn sheds light on how women with conditions like endometriosis, PCOS, or hereditary cancer risk are often excluded from mainstream menopause discussions and left without support. She explains why many cancer survivors can safely use hormone therapy under updated guidelines and why progesterone is still needed even after hysterectomy if endometriosis was present. This powerful conversation is a must-listen for anyone impacted by surgical or early menopause, and those advocating for more compassionate, informed, and personalized care. ••• Connect with Dr. Corinne Menn: Instagram: @drmennobgyn TikTok: @drmennobgyn Website: www.drmenn.com Alloy Website: www.myalloy.com ••• Make sure to follow Dr. Vonda Wright: Instagram: @drvondawright Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@vondawright Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@drvondawright LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/vonda-wright-md-ms-2803374 Website: http://www.DrVondaWright.com ••• If you enjoyed this episode, Subscribe to “HOT For Your Health” for more inspiring episodes.

Menstrual Equity and Menopause Truths with Jennifer Weiss-Wolf | HFYH #121
In this episode, Dr. Vonda Wright sits down with writer, activist, and feminist Jennifer Weiss-Wolf, a leading voice in the fight for menstrual equity. Dubbed the “architect of the U.S. policy campaign to squash the tampon tax,” Jennifer is the author of Periods Gone Public and serves as VP at the Brennan Center for Justice. Her groundbreaking work has been featured in The New York Times, TIME, Cosmopolitan, MSNBC, and more. Together, they dive into how a local donation drive sparked Jennifer’s national policy work, the cultural stigma surrounding menstruation, and the rise of the menstrual equity movement since 2015. They also unpack the critical need for accurate menopause education, public policy reform, and the long-lasting impact of the Women’s Health Initiative’s flawed messaging on hormone therapy. This conversation challenges outdated taboos and explores how both menstruation and menopause can serve as powerful starting points for advocating for women’s health across every life stage. ••• Connect with Jennifer Weiss-Wolf: Website: https://jenniferweisswolf.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jenniferweisswolf/ ••• Make sure to follow Dr. Vonda Wright: Instagram: @drvondawright Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@vondawright Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@drvondawright LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/vonda-wright-md-ms-2803374 Website: http://www.DrVondaWright.com ••• If you enjoyed this episode, Subscribe to “HOT For Your Health” for more inspiring episodes.
