Topics to be covered include cancer screening, new treatment options for perimenopausal symptoms, sexuality in one's later years, general good health and diet, obesity and eating disorders in women, urinary incontinence, and the health benefits of yoga. A librarian from the Stanford Health Library will also describe how to access and use a variety of support networks and services.
