Your shoulder hurts and you did nothing to injure it. Your knees ache. Your back is acting up. Everything feels inflamed and nobody is giving you a straight answer. You are not falling apart. You are not going crazy. There is a name for what is happening to you.

It is called the Musculoskeletal Syndrome of Menopause — and it is one of the most under-discussed, under-diagnosed conditions affecting women in midlife today. When estrogen walks out the door, it doesn't just affect your reproductive system. Every single part of your skeletal system — your muscles, your bones, your joints, your tendons, your cartilage, your spinal discs — has estrogen receptors. And when those receptors go unfilled, the cascade that follows is real, it is measurable, and it is happening to you right now whether you feel it or not. In this video I am breaking down exactly what is happening inside your body during this transition and what you can do to get in front of it before it becomes a crisis.
