menopause: unmuted: Marilyn's Story

E1: Marilyn’s Story

In this episode, Marilyn’s story explores the power of family relationships and self-care in supporting a positive menopause. 

Marilyn shares her experiences of how open communication within her family de-mystified menstruation and menopause right from the time of puberty. Conversations with her female relatives gave her strength and guided her to approach perimenopause, along with overall wellbeing and self-care, with a positive attitude. Remember, menopause is a new phase of life: you haven’t been there before, so isn’t it great to have trusted family and friends who can share with you their experiences. You don’t have to do this alone.
