Info:
Menopause is inevitable, but does it

you from a sweet-temperedmom, wife,
friend or even grandmother into one big
sweaty mood swing. The intense heat
combined with increased perspiration
and raging heartbeat are alarming and
uncomfortable. Learn about the triggers,
remedies and how to keep your cool!

about. Understanding your intimate
health during menopause is important to
your physical and emotional well-being.

Essential Screenings Every Woman
Should Have
When:
Jan. 24, 7 to 8:30 p.m.
Info:
You may think your annual OB/GYN
exam is all you need to worry about, but Pap
smears and mammograms are just two of the
many tests that you should request. Because
screenings find diseases when they are
easier to treat, knowing what tests to ask for
could ultimately save your life. We all know
that healthy habits like regular exercise,
stress management and choosing the right
foods are a must. Scheduling routine health
screenings should be, too! Make this a girls’
night out to remember!
