Local OB/GYN to host documentary screening about menopause; WABE politics reporters preview the 2025 legislative session

View descriptionShare
 

According to data from the Mayo Clinic, roughly 6,000 women enter menopause daily, which translates into more than 2 million women a year. However, there's still a lot to understand about this transitional period in a woman's life—including symptoms, diagnosis, treatment options and combating stigma—and how all of this affects women of color. In an effort to spread awareness, Dr. Dawn Mandeville is hosting a screening of the documentary, "The M Factor: Shredding the Silence on Menopause," on Jan. 21, at the Tara Theatre. She talks with Rose about her efforts to help menopausal women.

 

Plus, Monday marked the start of the 2025 Georgia legislative session. WABE politics reporters Sam Gringlas and Rahul Bali return to ‘Closer Look,’ to preview the session and to discuss Georgia’s upcoming State of the State, which will likely include Governor Brian Kemp’s proposal for an additional $50 Million in school safety funds after the Apalachee High School shooting.
