I reserve the last two episodes in December to revisit the most popular conversations that I've had over the past year.  Women represent two-thirds of the MS population.  Yet, surprisingly, there isn't nearly enough data related to women's health issues and MS. With an estimated 300,000 women living with MS in the United States who are currently in peri- or post-menopause, researchers have started to focus on how menopause and MS interact, and the best ways to treat symptoms of each.    This brings me to a conversation I had last March about managing menopause while managing MS with Dr. Riley Bove.    Dr. Bove is a neurologist and the founding director of the Sex and Gender-Enriched (SAGE) Neurology Program at the University of California, San Francisco, and she's considered one of the world's foremost experts on women's health issues and MS. We have a lot to talk about! Are you ready for RealTalk MS??!
