Exploring Women's Health and Longevity: Insights into Menopause Care and Hormone Replacement Therapy with Kristin Mallon

Exploring Health: Macro to Micro with Parker Condit

My guest today is Kristin Mallon CNM, MS, RNC-OB
CEO and Cofounder of Femgevity
Kristin Mallon is a board-certified nurse midwife, menopause, and feminine longevity expert, breast health expert, published author, and mother of four. She graduated from the University of California, Berkeley with a degree in Psychology and completed her Bachelor's degree in nursing at Johns Hopkins in Baltimore, MD.
After completing her Master's degree in Science & Midwifery at New York University (NYU), she began practicing as a board-certified nurse midwife in private practice in Brooklyn, NY. In 2022, she co-founded Femgevity, a telemedicine company focused on menopause and feminine longevity, providing concierge care for women seeking personalized healthcare.
This episode focuses on women’s health, in particular the care gaps for women surrounding menopause. We start by looking at the healthcare industry to get a better idea of what the care gaps are and why they exist.
Kristin goes into the Women’s Health Initiative and how that study halted hormone replacement therapy and the implications of that 20 years later.
In the latter part of our episode, we dial in on the importance of personalized health and wellness. Expect to hear discussions on the complexities surrounding the healthcare industry and data management, the role of functional medicine, and the importance of integrating individual factors like genetics, diet, and exercise in maintaining overall health. We wrap up with Kristin sharing her personal menopause journey and her mission with Femgevity to support women through this significant life stage.
Femgevity is a digital telemedicine company offering women access to personalized, monthly/continuous, and affordable care that addresses their evolving menopause symptoms.
