EP 429 What Every Man Needs to Know About Menopause | Dr. Kelly Casperson

<p>If you’re a man in any kind of relationship with a woman, you need to listen to this podcast. Menopause isn&#39;t just a women&#39;s issue. And if you&#39;re in a relationship with someone going through it, this conversation might be the most useful thing you listen to all year.</p><p><br></p><p>Dr. Kelly Casperson is a urologist, author, and host of the <a href="https://kellycaspersonmd.com/you-are-not-broken-podcast/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer"><em>You Are Not Broken</em></a> podcast.

What most men don&#39;t realize is that it&#39;s an initiation for them too.</p><p><br></p><p>We get into the biology of what&#39;s actually happening, why men check out, smother, or collapse when it shows up, what it does to libido and sex, and why this midlife passage — as uncomfortable as it gets — is one of the greatest opportunities for growth a man will ever get.</p><p><br></p><p>If your partner is in perimenopause or menopause — or will be — this one is required listening.</p><p><br></p><p>——</p><p><a href="http://www.manuncivilized.com/start" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Start here</a></p><p>Men – <a href="https://www.manuncivilized.com/thenation" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Join The UNcivilized Nation</a></p><p>——</p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://open.spotify.com/episode/0RwzpluhCqTirUjef9RTHl?si=J4rI7nx-Qr2CNJTQNA1n5A" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">First episode with Dr. Kelly Casperson</a></p><p><br></p><p>Find Dr. Kelly Casperson: </p><p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/kellycaspersonmd/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Instagram</a></p><p><a href="https://kellycaspersonmd.com/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Website</a></p><p>Books – <a href="https://kellycaspersonmd.com/you-are-not-broken-book/" target="_blank" rel="ugc
