About this Event
Menopause Matters - A Pharmacist's Guide to Women's Health at Midlife
Menopause is a natural part of life — but that doesn't mean it has to be navigated alone or in the dark.
Join us for Menopause Matters, an engaging and evidence-based community seminar led by Ivanka Soletsky, PharmD, MSCP, clinical pharmacist and Menopause Society Certified Practitioner at Strathcona Prescription Centre. Whether you're experiencing symptoms yourself, supporting someone who is, or a healthcare professional looking to deepen your knowledge, this evening is designed for you.
Drawing from the NAMS Menopause Practice: A Clinician's Guide, 6th Edition — the gold standard resource from The Menopause Society — Ivanka will walk you through what menopause actually is, what's happening in the body, and what your options are.
