このコンテンツについて

 In Episode 142 of Diary of a Kidney Warrior Podcast, host Dee Moore sits down with Dr. Vikram Talaulikar—menopause specialist and Associate Professor in Women’s Health—to demystify menopause for people living with chronic kidney disease (CKD). If you’ve ever wondered whether changing periods, brain fog, poor sleep, hot flushes, joint aches or low mood are “just stress,” menopause, or CKD—this conversation is for you. We explore the menopause transition (perimenopause → menopause → postmenopause), how symptoms can overlap with CKD, and what practical steps you can take right now. You’ll hear about: •Perimenopause vs. menopause—what’s normal, what to track, and why one blood test often doesn’t tell the full story. •Lifestyle strategies that genuinely help (sleep hygiene, movement, nutrition, supplements to discuss with your team). •Non-hormonal options (including CBT and certain medications) and when they may be considered. •HRT in CKD—safer formulations, delivery routes, and the “lowest effective dose” principle to discuss with your clinicians. •Bone and heart health during and after the transition—and what to raise at your next appointment. •Why timely support matters and how to build a joined-up plan with your GP, kidney team, or menopause specialist. This episode is compassionate, practical, and designed to help you advocate for yourself. We’re also preparing a listener-led Q&A with Dr. Talaulikar—send us your questions! Submission details are in the show notes. Perfect for: Women with CKD (or their supporters) navigating menopause, perimenopause, postmenopause; anyone curious about evidence-based options—including HRT—in the context of kidney health.
