👻 Some things are scary on Halloween. Patient misconceptions shouldn't be.
Fear and uncertainty about vaginal estrogen can sometimes prevent patients with Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause (GSM) from seeking or continuing treatment. As clinicians, we can help take the fear out of the conversation by providing evidence-based information and addressing common misconceptions.

Excited to have our @UNCurology crew involved in this work--huge thanks to @zach_feuer and @GopiLNarang
During #HealthcareQualityWeek, we’re highlighting the work underway through the Age-Friendly Approaches to Specialty Ambulatory Care grant from the Council of Medical Specialty Societies linkedin.com/company/council… (CMSS), with funding from The John A. Hartford Foundation linkedin.com/company/johnaha….
As part of our project, Expanding Age-Friendly Approaches to Urology Care, we are working with urology practices to pilot a urology-specific implementation guide for the Age-Friendly Health Systems 4Ms Framework—What Matters, Medication, Mentation, and Mobility.
The pilot will help us refine practical resources that support age-friendly care across the urology community.
