My Menopause Experience

Society EN ↓ 4 episodes

This podcast takes you on my journey through menopause. Intended as a journal, I share my personal challenges, the changes my body and my mind went through, talk about my insomnia, my struggle to find medical help and discussions with my husband, because I became grumpier by the day. I hope that my shared experiences help you to find remedy a bit earlier that I could and like to encourage you all to talk about your personal menopause experiences freely with others.

Even while talking to close female friends, menopause and its challenges is hardly a topic. I was surprised by the menopause quite unprepared and for the first couple of years did not even think about menopause, hormones and insomnia at all. As a consequence, I went on a odysee to...
