Talking to friends and family
Talking can really help. It is so important to share how you’re feeling with friends and family and not go through this alone.
It is important to remember every menopause experience can be different. It can be hard to know what to expect and what you’re experiencing may be different to someone you’re working with or friends and family.
In the same way, the solutions that work for friends and family may or may not be right for you.
The most important message to take away is that symptoms can be managed and they do not need to be bad or even unbearable before help is available.
For those supporting others, it’s important we encourage sharing but allow people to share in the way that feels right for them.
