Webinar #169
“Byaheng Menopause – Malusog, Masaya, at Marikit”
The Role of Menopausal Hormone Therapy

Menopause is an inevitable phase of a woman’s life, a natural biological process that marks the end of her reproductive years. While it is a universal experience, the journey through menopause is deeply personal and unique for every woman. For many, the symptoms and challenges that accompany this transition can be daunting. This is where Menopausal Hormone Therapy (MHT) comes into the spotlight.

In this insightful webinar, we will explore the intricacies of menopause, with a special focus on MHT. Our goal is to empower women with knowledge, dispel myths, and provide guidance in making informed choices for their health and well-being.

MHT has been a topic of both acclaim and controversy. Our distinguished panel of experts will delve into the science behind MHT, discussing its potential benefits and risks. We will examine how MHT can help manage menopausal symptoms, such as hot flashes, mood swings, and sleep disturbances, as well as its role in preventing osteoporosis and heart disease.

Our main speaker is Dr. Margaret Joyce A. Cristi-Limson, who is a member of the Board of Trustees of both the Philippine Society for Reproductive Medicine and Philippine Society for Fertility Preservation. Our reactor is Dr. Maria Jesusa B. Banal-Silao, who is the current President of the Philippine Society of Climacteric Medicine and was Past President of the Philippine Society for Reproductive Medicine. The Synthesis and Closing Remarks will be delivered by Dr. Stella Marie L. Jose, who is the Head of the Office of Expanded Education and Training at the UP Philippine General Hospital.

Join us as we navigate the landscape of menopause, embrace the power of knowledge, and work together to make informed decisions that enhance women’s lives during this transformative period. Together, we can empower, support, and celebrate the strength of women through the menopausal journey.
