Navigating Menopause Workshop

Service Description

Dr. Martinique Kling, board certified OBGYN and owner of Compassionate Gynecology in Fenton, MI, will be joining us for an informative session on menopause at Fuel for Your Health LLC. Register for an evening dedicated to understanding menopause and getting all your questions answered. This event is designed to provide you with the knowledge and guidance you need to navigate this phase of life with confidence. Don't miss this opportunity to learn from a respected expert in the field. Dr. Kling has seen the need for women to understand how their bodies and minds must be prepared for sexual encounters to be fulfilling. She engages in intimate conversations with individual patients through her office gynecology and counseling practice to bring insight and techniques to improve women’s sexual lives for years to come. Through these conversations she realized that many women experience sexual issues during menopause, especially sexual pain due to genitourinary alterations. They also suffer from hot flashes and night sweats, as well as joint pain, anxiety and depression, palpitations, insomnia, mood swings and rage, fatigue, weight gain, and incontinence. These patients are miserable, and all too often talk with their primary care provider and other gynecologists who tell them to just deal with their symptoms because, “menopause is natural.” Dr. Kling saw this as a call to action, so she completed coursework and testing through the Menopause Society to become one of the few Menopause Society Certified Practitioners in the area – and the only one who is also a female ABOG-certified OB/GYN in Genesee County. She now provides comprehensive education, diagnosis, and management of menopause. She reassures patients that they need not suffer through symptoms, and develops individualized plans based on personal and family history, most bothersome issues, and patient goals. In addition to treating systemic symptoms, she makes sure to include specific treatment for sexual pain and changes, which in turn supports libido and relationships.
