Women’s wellness is under-discussed, under-researched and under-considered by the Canadian healthcare system—and Breast Cancer Awareness month provides a great opportunity to explore two key aspects of women’s health: Breast cancer and menopause. What are the implications of 422,000 missed mammograms in Ontario during the pandemic? Canadian women are likely to live a third of their adult lives in menopause, so why do we know so little about how to cope with its symptoms? What do you need to know about cancer screenings and your health, and where can you access important resources? Bronwen Evans, Medcan’s chief growth officer, explores these topics and more with Dr. Vivien Brown, MD, an accomplished speaker and author who specializes in women’s health and healthy aging.
