Menopause! I had no idea what was going on! All these symptoms I didn’t know were connected. More women should talk about it. Younger women deserve to know what will eventually happen to them.
There’s plenty of info given to girls as they approach puberty (we were given booklets, free sanitary products and the lilets woman came to give us a talk)
But as older women we’re reliant on older sisters, aunties and friends if we’re lucky (or the internet)
Its quite a hidden rite of passage compared to how it all started
This is a huge one! My mom’s life imploded due to her inability to handle peri and menopause. Thank goodness for the internet on this one, though it would be so much more helpful to hear from other women in person.
