Brain \u00b7 Menopause
Cognitive training in menopause: what helps brain fog
Novel motor skill acquisition drives hippocampal neurogenesis. Menopausal brain fog is real but responsive: sleep, aerobic exercise, resistance training, and learning something new all help.

- Sleep first
- Aerobic and resistance training

- Reassess after 12 weeks
