Speaker 1: Welcome to Very Perry. I'm Anal's Todd, I'm a writer here at MMA MIA and I am in Perry manifests Well, I think I am like It's hard to know, right. I mean, I'm a forty two year old single mum, constantly wide yet tired. I feel like I'm on my last nerve in situations that I used to handle with ease, and my period is about as confused as a chameleon at a skittles factory. So we're learning this stuff together. I will hold your hand if you promise to hold mine. So we've brought together twenty five of the world's leading experts in women's health to help sort this shit out for us and to keep things simple, Yes please. We've mapped out seven main sessions, each on different pery symptoms. There's this session on what is going on? Help my vagina is broken as we look at jenity, rinary syndrome and rogue periods, the truth about hormones and HRT, weight gaining Perry and what to do about it, managing the mental load, a sleep boot camp in Reclaim your Nights, Yes Please, and loss of identity and how to find the right support. Plus a bonus section on sex and skin and hair. I'm looking forward to that one. Each session features specialist women's healthcare experts as we ask what the is going on? Yes, so I would say that a great way to think about perrymuntipris is purity and reverse and then we ask now what with an expert panel session discussing management options and actionable steps we can do right now. And as a little treat at the start of each session, good friend of Mamma Mia, comedian Kath Mahoney will be catching up with doctor Ginny Mansburg, who is a master at explaining what's going on without the confusing medical lingo. Okay, here's Kath and doctor Ginny in our first session.

Speaker 2: Hey, welcome to Very Perry. I'm doctor Ginny Mansberg. I'm a GP mainly of midlife women. I'm also an author and I mainly see women about perimenopause symptoms. And here some women think that they know exactly what Perry is like. It's a bit of hot flushes and maybe a few mood things, right, that is just maybe five percent of the story. Did you know that there are so many other symptoms? And before I tell you what they are, let me introduce my really good mate Cas. Mahoney, we might have had one or two of these.
