Approximately 1.3 million individuals enter menopause each year. It's so important to know that menopause is not one-size-fits-all. Every person's experience can be very different. Many of us know about hot flashes and night sweats, but there are over 34 symptoms, including unexpected ones like mood swings, memory lapses, loss of collagen in the skin, and more. Because of this, it is common for people not to realize they are entering menopause because the symptoms can be subtle and vary in intensity. Understanding your experience may differ from others is a crucial step in understanding and unlocking ways to manage symptoms. Symptoms can be confusing and leave you feeling isolated, but resources can help you from becoming overwhelmed. The digital-first platform, VERSALIE , was created to redefine how we think and talk about health, hormones, and menopause so that individuals can better understand their bodies and confidently discover what may work best for their personal needs. The platform includes a virtual care component called VERSALIE CARE , where individuals can book one-on-one visits with experienced medical professionals trained in the most up-to-date menopausal care. During visits, individuals can discuss menopause symptoms, hormonal and non-hormonal prescription options, and everyday care considerations such as healthy eating, exercise, stress management, and more. This piece is key to not feeling overwhelmed and isolated with your symptoms. There's also a plethora of products specifically designed to address menopause-related symptoms and challenges. Not only does VERSALIE have a curated storefront where you can shop by symptom, but the brand just launched its own line of skincare products clinically tested on menopausal complexions. Using dermatologist-recommended, gentle, and effective ingredients, the brand has products that support menopause skin changes as a result of estrogen-depleted skin like loss of firmness and radiance, dryness, fine lines, and wrinkles--a great go-to for those looking to address these symptomatic changes.

00:00Hi, I'm Dr. Tara Scott, and I'm a hormone specialist.
00:071.3 million individuals are going through menopause.
00:11A hundred percent of women will actually go through menopause.
00:14And what's important to know is that it spans a long time, and the symptoms can vary.
00:20So we all know about hot flashes and night sweats, but there are over 34 symptoms of
00:25menopause, and they can be some more unusual ones like insomnia, weight gain, hair loss,
00:32mood swings.
00:33So if you're overwhelmed and confused and don't know where to go, I like to direct my
00:37patients to Versily.com.
00:40It's a new digital platform that has all kinds of information all in one place.
00:47They've got a blog that you can read about specific menopausal symptoms, and if you're
00:52not sure if your symptoms are from hormones or not, they actually have a symptom navigator.
00:57That's a quick two-minute quiz that you can try to make sense of what you're experiencing.
01:03The other problem I hear from patients all the time is, who do they talk to?
01:08What kind of provider?
01:09If you have any serious information or symptoms, always check with your primary care doctor
01:14first, but I can tell you as a traditionally trained OBGYN, we get very little training
01:19in menopause.
01:21So it's important to seek out a provider that has additional training in menopause.
01:26That's why it's exciting that Versily also has a telehealth platform.
01:31They've launched an opportunity to have one-on-one care with menopause-trained clinicians.
01:37So here during your visit, you could talk about hormones, non-hormonal therapy.
01:43You can even dive deeper and talk about what to eat, how to exercise, how to manage your
01:49stress, and how to navigate your symptoms.
01:52And even more, if you're really suffering and still trying to figure out who to work
01:56with, Versily has a storefront where you can actually go there, type in your symptoms,
02:03and shop by symptoms where you can get natural supplements that are aimed at the particular
02:08symptom that you're having.
02:09So if hot flashes particularly bother something for you, you can seek it out.
02:14But I know for myself, as I've gone through this change, I've had tons of changes in
02:19my skin, which can be expected with the fluctuating levels of estrogen.
02:23So it's exciting that Versily just launched a skincare line.
02:27They partnered with dermatologists, and they specifically targeted menopause skin.
02:33So there's specific changes that are important to know about, like fine line and wrinkles.
02:37So this is a dermatologist-developed skincare line that just launched.
02:42So for a one-stop shop and to get medical information, potentially telehealth, and shop
02:48for symptom resolution, check out versily.com.
