Is there a connection with us women going through puberty earlier and earlier as girls, and thereby more women also experiencing menopause earlier? 🤔
- that's exactly what I asked my otherwise very competent, listening and pragmatic gynecologist about today. He replied that there was perhaps a small trend, but that you could not ascertain a 1:1 correlation in it.

www.healthline.com/health/menopause/menopause-and-sensitive-teethMenopause and your mouth A decrease in hormones during perimenopause and menopause can cause a variety of mouth-related changes…… In the UK apparently women are entitled to free dental care while pregnant and a year after giving birth because... hormones can make gums more sensitive and inflamed and cause various problems in the mouth. Funnily enough, hormones (loss of oestrogen) can also do that during menopause, but there is no free help in the UK. How is it in your country ?

Wow some of those symptoms I've been having I didn't associate with menopause. I knew about the hot flash chills night sweats, didn't think maybe my muscle tension and brain fog was hormonal, thought it was trauma.

Hsp and perimeno pause / meno pause Is there any research on hsp and peri meno pause / meno pause ? As far as I know, there are no specific studies of menopause and HSP together. There is no known physiological link, as far as I know either. Having said that, since we HSPs respond more to everything, including substances, it could be that we respond more to our hormones or lack therof, whether thats in a good way or a not so good way. If we are stressed HSPs, that could make a difference to how we tolerate bodily changes. ——- chronic illness and HSPs, and chronic pain (and yes hormones) fall into that category. While we don't have specific research, we do know that HSPs are more strongly sensitive in their bodies as well as hearts and minds. It is clear that we need more self-care to manage these challenges than 80%ers do. Elaine Aron has aways advocated getting great consultation on health issues and trying more than one medical professional so that you can use your deep processing to find YOUR truth and your best path.

I think this link contains misinformation. It shares an overly "light" view of menopause by stating only 1 in 3 women experience problems with menopause. I call bullshit, studies show 80% of women experience vasomotor symptoms. Other studies show 85% experience negative symptoms of menopause. Most of the women I speak with about it are struggling with symptoms and feel exasperated and unprepared. |

www.thetimes.co.uk/article/this-approach-to-the-menopause-is-gaslighting-women-czh2j9nkjLOUISE NEWSON This approach to the menopause is gaslighting women….. In England, cognitive behavioral therapy will now be offered to menopausal women as part of menopause treatment. It is as Dr. Louise Newson, writes here in an article in The Times the wildest gaslighting of women. Menopause is a biological fact. It is something that happens in the body - regardless of what or how we think. The drop in estrogen in a woman during menopause is so massive that many people can feel it physically.…

podcasts.apple.com/dk/podcast/feel-better-live-more-with-dr-rangan-chatterjee/id1333552422?i=100063082843Why 70% of divorces that happens over 40 are initiated by women…. Feel better live more podcast 392 Hormonal health can play a big role in how women feel about themselves and the world around them. In my BRAND-NEW podcast conversation this week with @dr.mindypelz, we discuss so MANY aspects of female health, including why women often handle stress in a different way to men, why weight gain is NOT inevitable as women get older AND the best times in a woman’s cycle to resolve conflict and deal with relationship issues. As you can see in this short clip, Mindy feels really passionate about helping women feel seen and heard BUT this episode is NOT just for women - it’s for all of us. Leave a ❤️if this resonated with you, or TAG someone below who you know would enjoy this episode or find it helpful👇🏾 ⭐️ Please note this is a SHORT CLIP from EPISODE 392 of the ‘Feel Better, Live More’ podcast with Mindy Pelz. To listen or watch the FULL conversation with Mindy - and put this clip in PERSPECTIVE - click the link in the @drchatterjee bio above, or search for ‘Dr Chatterjee Mindy Pelz’ in Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube or enjoy wherever you get your podcasts. Mindy’s aim is to empower women by explaining the biological changes that take place each month and throughout a woman’s life. She believes that, armed with that knowledge, they can improve their health, happiness and relationships. But this conversation is just as relevant for men. We discuss whether weight gain is inevitable as we age. Is it our fate – and particularly a woman’s fate – to gain weight once she hits 40? It can be, she tells me, but only if women don’t know how to harness their hormones to prevent it. She explains how declining oestrogen levels can make women insulin resistant which may be one the reasons why the diet and lifestyle that worked for them in their 20s and 30s, no longer does once they hit 40. At the same time, declining levels of progesterone, the calming hormone, can result in lower-quality sleep, more perceived stress and increased levels of the stress hormone cortisol - which, in and of itself, will contribute to an increase in belly fat. It makes so much sense when Mindy explains it, but unfortunately, this information is still not widely known. We cover so many different topics, including: • How to adjust when and what you eat during different phases of your cycle. • The importance of gut health when thinking about hormonal health. • Why women often handle stress in a different way to men. • The impact that hormonal changes can have on brain function. • The practical steps we can take to improve our sleep. • The importance of lifestyle changes irrespective of whether a woman chooses to have HRT or not. • The best times in a woman’s cycle to resolve conflict and deal with relationship issues.This episode is jam-packed with insightful information and practical take-homes. I hope you enjoy listening.

www.amazon.com/dp/B0C74QG5H3?linkCode=ogi&th=1&psc=1&tag=sofferscom888-20What if our notion of what makes us happy is the very thing that's making us so sad? Ten years on from first writing about her own experiences of mental illness, Bryony Gordon still receives messages about the effect it has on people. Now perimenopausal and well into the next stage of her life, parenting an almost-adolescent, just what has that help - and that connection with other unwell people - taught Bryony about herself, and the society we live in? What has she learned, and why have her views on mental health changed so radically? After coming out the other side of the biggest trauma of our living memory - a global pandemic - existing in a state of perma-crisis has now become our new normal. From burnout and binge eating, to living with fluctuating hormones and the endless battle to stay sober, Bryony begins to question whether she got mental illness wrong in the first place. Is it simply a chemical imbalance, or rather a normal response from your brain telling you that something isn't right? Mad Woman explores the most difficult of all the lessons she's learned over the last decade - that our notion of what makes a happy life is the very thing that's making us so sad. Bestselling author Bryony Gordon is unafraid to write with her trademark blend of compassion, honesty and humour about her personal challenges and demons, which means her books and journalism have had profound impact on readers. She founded the mental health charity, Mental Health Mates, which has become a vast online community. *Bryony Gordon's Mad Woman was a Sunday Times bestseller on 18th Feb 2024. *Bryony Gordon's Mad Girl was a number one Sunday Times bestseller on 12th June 2016.
