[Real] Women and Menopause



When I went looking on the net for information about menopause [and perimenopause] I found lots of medical articles, lots of pharmaceutical articles, lots of herbal articles but I didn't find much by real women about real women. Perhaps that's because most of us are still in the dark. Or perhaps it's because we don't believe that personal, 'anecdotal' evidence is worth anything.

Just for the record - I disagree. Personal experiences are not gospel and they are not science and they may only be valid for some individuals but they can help all of us get a clearer picture of what the dread 'M' word really means. I'm going to start the ball rolling with a couple of things that I've discovered in the hope that they help someone out there and that other women will add their own discoveries.
