North American Menopause Society (NAMS) video series about important midlife health topics: Clinical options for treating GSM

The North American Menopause Society (NAMS) is proud of its comprehensive video series for women on important midlife health topics. All the interviews in the series are hosted by NAM Board of Trustees Member and Immediate Past-President Dr. Marla Shapiro, a Canadian physician who led this exciting initiative. Dr. Shapiro is also the medical consultant for CTV News.

In this first video of 2018 series, Dr. Shapiro discusses clinical aspects of the genitourinary syndrome of menopause (GSM) with Dr.Nick Panay, an obstetrician-gynecologist from London and general secretary-elect of the international menopause society(IMS).

This is a very common problem worldwide, but it is severely underreported and undertreated because most of the women are reluctant to come forward and discuss it with the health care providers.
