{{notability|date=December 2017}}Jerilynn C. Prior is an American-born, Canadian endocrinologist[1] and medical doctor specializing in menstrual cycles and the effects of hormones on women's health.[2][2] She has been called a leader in understanding and treating perimenopause and menopause.[3]

Bio

Prior grew up in Alaska. She received a Bachelor of Arts in English Literature at Linfield College, Oregon (with honors) in 1965. She began her training in Internal Medicine and then in Endocrinology and graduated from Boston University School of Medicine (with honors) in 1969. She worked as a physician in Boston, Poughkeepsie, Syracuse, NY, Barrow, and Fairbanks, Alaska.[4][6]

She has said that as a physician she could not accept the situation in America of turning away patients who could not pay for treatment,[5] and that she moved to Canada in 1976 because she believed in the Canadian universal health care system. She became a Canadian citizen in 1984. She lives in Vancouver.[4]

Scientific work

Prior is Professor of Endocrinology and Metabolism at the University of British Columbia,

founder and scientific director of the Centre for Menstrual Cycle and Ovulation Research (CeMCOR),[6] director of the BC Center of the Canadian Multicenter Osteoporosis Study (CaMOS), and a past president of the Society for Menstrual Cycle Research.[4]

Prior is the author of three books, has over 200 publications, and holds 6 patents. She was awarded the University of British Columbia Faculty of Medicine Distinguished Medical Research Lecturer Award in 2002. Her research-based novel Estrogen's Storm Season was a finalist in the 2006 Independent Publishers Book Awards for Health.[4] She co-wrote the perimenopause chapter for the 40th anniversary edition of Our Bodies, Ourselves.[7]

Susan Love has called Prior a "champion for women's health", and she has been credited as one of the first researchers to propose that psychological and sociocultural factors must be considered in medical research on women's health.[8] Prior has been critical of the "medicalization of all things female" and has been recognized for pioneering research into women's ranges of normal experiences and physiology.[9]
