In this episode, we’re uncovering the truth about perimenopause with Amanda Swan, a Yale-trained nurse practitioner and founder of Swan Integrative Health and Wellness.  Amanda is on a mission to transform women’s health by empowering them with real solutions, not just surviving it.

On this episode of the Medical Disruptor, we explore why so many women experience broken, restless sleep, the hidden causes of joint pain, and the hormonal imbalances behind wild mood swings.  Amanda shares her approach to fix these issues rather than just masking symptoms.  She also explains why women often receive conflicting responses from doctors, leaving them feeling frustrated and overlooked.
