Welcome back! Today we have Dr. Chrisandra Shufelt rejoining us to celebrate the launch of the REVEAL registry! This tool will help gather date worldwide from women, improve treatment, and spread awareness of Hypothalamic Amenorrhea (HA), a condition characterized by the absence of menstruation due to various factors including stress, exercise, and eating patterns.

The discussion also touches on the implications of HA on fertility and brain health, highlighting the need for ongoing research and education in this area of women's health.

Dr. Shufelt is Professor and Chair of the Division of General Internal Medicine at Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville, Florida, and Associate Director of Women's Health Research Center at Mayo Clinic Enterprise. She is a women’s health internist with fellowship training in vascular biology and women's health and a certified menopause practitioner. She has several National and International leadership roles in the American College of Physicians, the European Menopause and Andropause Society and the North American Menopause Society where she is the immediate past-President of the Society and on the board of trustees. Dr. Shufelt has over 200 publications in the area of women’s health and has also co-authored several scientific position statements on menopause and hormone therapy. Her NIH-funded research focuses on young women with hypothalamic amenorrhea evaluating the impact on immune and vascular health.
