Thank you! As a pharmacist with many years in retail I appreciate this post. We WANT you to seek our help! I believe it’s why we all went into the career in the first place.

Victoria - thank you for this. Hearing it directly from someone who's been in the trenches makes all the difference.

Your patients are lucky to have you. The women I work with often don't realize their pharmacist could help them navigate HRT options, insurance coverage issues, or even spot patterns in their prescriptions that might be menopause-related. That expertise you built in retail pharmacy? It's exactly what women going through perimenopause need.

I hope more women see your comment and take it to heart.
