Many of the symptoms of menopause — hot flashes, night sweats, insomnia, memory lapses, depression and anxiety — start in the brain. How exactly does menopause impact cognitive health? Sharing groundbreaking findings from her research, neuroscientist Lisa Mosconi reveals how decreasing hormonal levels affect brain aging — and shares simple lifestyle changes you can make to support lifelong brain health.

You must stop eating sugar and processed foods. And use intermittent fasting.
This was incredibly relevant to me. I wish I could sit with her for hours for more info. Thanks for the great information!
Just another reason why it sucks to be female.
I didnt think there was a difference between men and women. If someone is a trans woman (no surgery, nio hormone meds) do they still go through these homonal changes?
being a woman, the gift that keeps on giving
Because of menopause and changes to my cognitive function – decline in sharpness, brain fog – I lost a wonderful career. Fired for low productivity and lack of contributions after years of being the 'star'.
Does pri-menopause cause you to have painful nipples
This was helpful. Thank you for the information. Very helpful.
Here we are two years later and is this presentation going to be labeled “Transphobic”. ??♀️
I feel like crying watching this. My moods have been every where. I am glad to see the practical info she provided about diet. I haven’t confirmed with a doctor that I am perimenopausal but several signs point to that.
Merci oh combien merci de mettre des mots sur ce que je ressens!
Awesome ?
I needed this today, going through surgical menopause and feel so low..
This is so important to know because feeling does not define who we are inside. Men is a men and women is a woman doesn't matter how they feel. We can denied that.
I feel like I have scrabbled eggs for a brain! Now I know why!
I went through menopause experiencing absolutely nothing. No medication, no reason for any changes during the menopause years. Life just went on as normal, aside from the blessing of no monthly cycle and no children. I never experienced much of anything when I did have monthly cycles however either. It was three days, no emotions, no pain, no changes…didn't really even notice. I guess I was extremely fortunate.
So, basically, we maybe tired, but we're just as sharp. Thanks for reassuring. ?❤️
There is no such thing as a gendered brain… However men’s brains differ from women’s brains.
OK. Lol after this statement I do not trust this woman. I don’t care how smart she is.
I wonder why it is called menopause – it is not going to come back again so why not call it menostop?
wow this was a life changing TED talk for millions of women – thank you Lisa Mosconi!!! ????
WE ARE JUST AS SHARP
“Symptom free process” lol ok why stretch the truth?
