40: Laura Nolan Horgan - Surgical Menopause BRCA Gene

NEW! The 40's Stretch - Stretch Marks with Sinéad O'MoorePlease welcome my second guest, Laura Nolan Horgan, founder of LNH Edit, mother of 3 and BRCA gene warrior who in her early 30's said no thanks to Ovarian and Breast cancer and underwent a Salpingo Double Ooverectomy, full hysterectomy which removed her ovaries, fallopian tubes, cervix, womb and double mastectomy - and while this saved her life, it also plunged her straight into surgical menopause. Laura shared her story on Georgie's Good Glow podcast 4 years ago which gives a really good insight into her BRCA Gene story and well worth a listen - but here, with the grace of time and distance from this traumatic life grenade, Laura shares the hormonal impact thereafter. We talk about HRT, how Menopause and Women's Health specialist, Dr. Deirdre Lundy brought her back to life, reclaiming her sense of womanhood and the lessons every woman should know from someone who had to learn the hard way, far far too young. Supported by Key For Her - Their two-step supplement includes two unique blends to support your daily wellness and help naturally alleviate the symptoms associated with menstruation, perimenopause and menopause.Use the discount code STRETCH for 20% off your first order across all products on keyforher.com "The 40's Stretch" is a Stretch Marks Production,Hosted by Sinéad O'Moore, produced by The Brand Story and sound edited by Alan Breslin.Contact: stretchmarkspod@gmail.comhttps://www.instagram.com/stretchmarkspodcast/ Hosted on Acast.
