Dr. Christa Waymire
Board-certified Family Medicine Physician &
North American Menopause Society-certified Menopause Specialist
Dr. Christa Waymire is a board-certified family medicine physician with 16 years of clinical experience and founder of Dragonfly Menopause Care in Chanhassen, Minnesota. After eight years in family medicine and several years in emergency medicine, she was inspired by her own perimenopausal journey to create a clinic devoted exclusively to helping women thrive in midlife and menopause.
A North American Menopause Society–certified menopause specialist, Dr. Waymire is also completing advanced training in Personalized (Functional) Medicine through the University of South Florida’s Morsani College of Medicine under Dr. Pamela Smith. Her approach blends evidence-based medical care with practical, individualized treatment—balancing hormone therapy, nutrition, lifestyle, and wellness strategies to help women regain energy, confidence, and joy at this stage of life.
What is Menopause?
Menopause typically occurs in your 40s or 50s as your body naturally produces fewer reproductive hormones. However, some women experience symptoms earlier due to surgery, cancer treatments, or unknown causes. The phase leading up to menopause, known as perimenopause, is marked by fluctuating hormone levels and can bring a variety of symptoms, including hot flashes, brain fog, low libido, mood changes, and joint pain. Beyond these symptoms, declining estrogen also increases the risk of bone loss, heart disease, and cognitive decline, making proactive care essential for long-term health.
During perimenopause and menopause, you may experience a variety of symptoms, including (but not limited to):
​
-
Changes in your menstrual cycle
-
Hot flashes and night sweats
-
Difficulty with memory or "brain fog"
-
Low libido or discomfort during intercourse
-
Vaginal dryness
-
Mood changes (mild to severe anxiety, depression, irritability)
-
Changes in skin
-
Joint pain and body aches
