A better quality of life can be achieved with the right support
Around 13 million women in the UK experience menopause symptoms that impact their lives.
Hormonal changes can lead to personality shifts, confusion, irritability, and difficulty focusing. This can affect relationships and work, making it hard for women to explain their feelings and for families to understand them.
It is crucial for partners, employers, friends, and families to learn about menopause to provide better support.
“A problem shared is a problem halved, but as with so many problems affecting women – periods, menopause, postnatal depression – we often feel embarrassed, as if we’re moaning or just plain wrong to air them.”
Konnie Huq
“Life doesn’t end with menopause; it’s the beginning of a new adventure. Strap in and enjoy the ride!”
Dame Helen Mirren
“You have to sit down and take a good look at yourself, particularly as you grow older and your face changes. People are afraid of changing; that they’re losing something. They don’t understand that they are also gaining something.“
Sharon Stone
