Welcome!

Please share your thoughts, feelings, questions, opinions, answers, inspirations, expirations, frustrations, ideas, clues, intuitive hunches, etc.!

An informed woman makes the best choices. There are many myths and exaggerations about menopause.
Let us strive to maintain a mentally healthy outlook and view menopause as an adventure to be embarked on, rather than a phase in life to be dreaded.

Menopause is simply a latter stage of physical maturation in a woman's life. Although some experience challenging discomforts, the majority of women experience numerous benefits from menopause. let us explore them both!

Menopause is a time of personal growth wherein many women finally realize just who they are and are able to have satisfying and happy lives during and after this phase of life.

A key ingredient to making your experience less overwhelming and bothersome is to have some friends and/or a support group of individuals who are going or have gone through menopause. I hope some of you will find this a forum for this purpose.

I am pre-menopausal, age 45 and have noted my body is beginning to change. A few things happened this year--three missed periods, some weight gain, beginning to get gray hair, hair on my chin, sleep pattern changes, etc. I would like to hear from other women -- advice, etc.!
