Has cancer treatment led you to early menopause? Do you feel confused about your options? This podcast hosts conversations with cancer patients, survivors and medical professionals to learn about treatments available for women with a cancer diagnosis. I’m Dani Binnington, after breast cancer, surgery to remove my ovaries led me to early menopause, I had no idea what my treatment options were and who in my medical team could help me figure out what to do about my symptoms. I felt alone and unsupported. It took me so long to discover I had lots of options too. If only I’d known sooner! Everything I wish I’d known back then is inside these conversations - so you can make the right choices now. These episodes are a good place to start: 1. Rethinking Tamoxifen & Aromatase Inhibitors 2. Why I decided to take HRT after an oestrogen driven cancer 2. Alcohol & Me Menopause and cancer is also a thriving community online and in real life.

In this honest and judgment-free conversation, Dani is joined by cancer survivors Emily and Anita to explore their relationship with alcohol after cancer and during menopause.Together, they talk openly about questioning drinking habits, attempts to moderate or stop altogether, the social shifts that come with drinking less, and the impact on identity and relationships.We know that no amount of alcohol is completely safe. Large studies show that alcohol increases the risk of at least seven different cancers, and it can also worsen menopause symptoms such as hot flushes, poor sleep, and anxiety. But this episode isn’t about shame or blame.It’s an invitation to reflect — gently and without judgement — on your own relationship with alcohol.Whether you drink occasionally, regularly, or not at all, this conversation creates space to pause and ask: Is this still serving me?Episode Highlights:00:00 Intro06:41 "Finding My People Alcohol-Free"13:20 "Alcohol-Free Holiday Journey"16:37 "Redefining Roles When Sober"24:34 "Sober Struggle with Moderation"26:37 "Authentic Connections Without Alcohol"30:26 Alcohol, Endometriosis, and Regret32:03 Alcohol, Cancer, and Self-Blame35:14 "Individual Choices in Health"41:06 "Sober Journey, New Experiences"These are the websites Anita and Emily mention:https://besober.co.uk/ and https://soberbutterfly.com/You can find Anita here https://yogaandsoundwithanita.co.uk/And Emily here https://www.linkedin.com/in/emily-lunn-4931b3106/Connect with us:For more information and resources visit our website: www.menopauseandcancer.org Or follow us on Instagram @menopause_and_cancerJoin our Facebook group: www.facebook.com/groups/menopauseandcancerchathub
