To confront many of these symptoms, Alton Memorial Hospital is having an event called “Menopause Mania” at 6 p.m. Wednesday, March 27, in the AMH café meeting rooms. The event will feature a presentation by Dr. Geoffrey Turner, the chief of OB/GYN at AMH.

“There is a common medicine that can solve a variety of peri-menopausal problems, from irregular periods, to ovarian cysts, and it even prevents uterus and ovary cancer,” Dr. Turner said. “Sound interesting? Come and find out all about the gynecologist’s best friend.”

Menopause Mania will also feature refreshments and giveaways, plus coupons to shop at Miss Eunice’s Hat Box (the AMH gift shop). Valet service will be offered for visitors to this event at the valet entrance of the hospital’s Duncan Wing.
