	Description:		When we talk about menopause, we often leave out the stories of women in their 20s and 30s who are experiencing it prematurely. We're sharing a conversation from Mamamia's daily news podcast, The Quicky. They speak to Jess Westcott, a young woman whose breast cancer treatment triggered early menopause. And, they unpack why this medical anomaly is so difficult to navigate. You'll also hear from Dr. Kelly Teagle, founder of the WellFemme Telehealth Menopause Clinic, who provides a clear medical explanation of what early menopause is, its causes, its long-term health implications and how it differs from a natural transition. This is a must listen for understanding the profound impact of premature hormonal changes on a woman's life and health.
