I know from experience how difficult it can be to find reliable information about menopause. Online searches can be frustrating, and often lead to sales pitches for anti-aging “solutions”. Many books available are too general to answer women’s individual questions. Most of us have questions as we enter into and experience our menopause, and answers may be hard to get from our health care providers. This site aims to provide women with up-to-date, reliable information about menopause. I hope that this information will help you traverse your menopause transition more comfortably and confidently. This is a natural period of a woman’s life, not an illness, and we all come out the other side older and wiser.
I am building this website to be a resource for all women:
- the most up-to-date and reliable information on menopause;
- regular updates on current research on menopause and aging.
