I’m looking forward to delivering my Women’s Wellbeing Session today…The Menopause. Let’s bust a few myths , talk about our own experiences and identify things we can explore to support us through the next physical change in our lives. Making it a positive experience!
The unpredictability of #perimenopause & #Menopause is something that takes women by surprise.There can be times of total disconnection & despair & challenging as it is,rather than fighting it,try accepting letting it wash over you.
It will pass❤

A fantastic move from @KelloggsUKI - giving staff fertility, menopause and miscarriage leave, and training managers to talk about menopause, helping to break the taboos. https://t.co/xlTFXadEV2

“I remember thinking HRT causes breast cancer.”
Only one in 10 women take hormone replacement therapy in the UK @ThisIsDavina dispels some of the myths and around HRT and shares her own menopause story.
"Just the idea that we are being heard in parliament, that government are going to effect change, that will help support women."
TV presenter @ThisisDavina welcomes the UK government's decision to slash prescription charges for women in England on hormone replacement therapy.
The government has cut prescription charges for HRT in England after a campaign led by Labour MP Carolyn Harris. She has called today’s decision the beginning of a “menopause revolution”.
