Hey Outlouders! For this week's Sunday special, we're dropping an episode of our sister podcast Well into your feed - because we know you'll love this conversation as much as we do. We're talking all things peri and menopause.&nbsp; Does your endometriosis put you at a higher risk of early menopause? Did a pig castrator really perform the first-ever C-section? And if you've had a hysterectomy, do you still need to see a gynaecologist? On this episode of Well Claire Murphy chats to&nbsp;Professor Susan Davis, a founder of Jean Hailes for Women's Health and past president of the Australasian Menopause Society, to find out what's fact and what's fiction when it comes to the science of perimenopause.&nbsp; They unravel common myths, including &ldquo;disappearing labia&rdquo; and talk about why some things you're being sold on social media - like weighted vests and special supplements -&nbsp; may not be as miraculous as they might seem. Plus, talk about the latest research on delaying the onset of menopause and why it might not be a good idea for everybody.
