Changemaker Dr. Jayne Morgan, Vice President of Medical Affairs, Hello Heart

Menopause gets reduced to hot flashes, whispered about like it’s a personal flaw, then brushed off in the exam room when symptoms don’t fit a neat box. That silence has a cost. Cardiologist Dr. Jayne Morgan joins us to explain why menopause is a cardiovascular turning point, and why so many women feel dismissed with “normal labs” while their bodies are waving real warning flags.In this episode, we talk about an uncomfortable truth: many clinicians receive little to no menopause training, and it still isn’t meaningfully reflected in many clinical guidelines. Dr. Morgan breaks down how that gap leads to fragmented care, in which palpitations, dizziness, bloating, joint pain, or even itchy ears are treated as separate mysteries rather than a connected syndrome. We also unpack how language like “atypical” chest pain can quietly lower urgency for women, even though heart disease remains the number one killer of women, and risk can rise sharply during perimenopause as estrogen declines.Connect with Dr. Morgan at· Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/FortyMIlionBeats/· Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/drjaynemorgan/· TikTok – https://www.tiktok.com/@DrJayneMorgan
