The Impact of Menopause on Relationships and Intimacy: Navigating Emotional and Physical Transitions Together
Menopause is a significant milestone in a woman’s life, marking the end of her reproductive years.

I'm now watching Julia, a sort of light drama series about the life and work of Julia Child. She's played by Sarah Lancashire and her retired diplomat husband is played (baldly alas but I suppose it is natural for the Crane boys) by the lovely David Hyde Pierce.
In the current scene she tells him that while she was out she bumped into a friend (who's a new mother), and he asks, "Was she with that awful baby?"
As if the baby were an unsavoury new friend that he disapproves of.
I enjoyed that.
#he's ambivalent/not fully supportive about her finding a new career just when his has come to an end earlier than he wanted#meanwhile she's just coming to terms with beginning menopause without having had children#so seeing the friend with her bébé was not an unalloyed pleasure#this show has lilith in it too!

got on facebook for the first time in a few weeks and a casual friend was asking if anyone had tips for dealing with perimenopause symptoms.
Like night sweats and hot flashes and mood swings.
Several people had advice on supplements and linked to studies. Love them. Greatness.
A few people went, "Oh, here's a book about how you should embrace menopause!!"
And I need all of those people to get into this bus I'm driving off a cliff.
She was NOT looking for MORAL support. She doesn't wanna wake up in a lake of her own goddamn sweat.
And having just changed my hormone dose AGAIN so I don't 1) wake up in a lake of my own sweat and b) don't have those fucking nightmares I have if my hormones are off-kilter, I'm willing to off myself as the driver of the you-absolute-fucks-bus.
There is a time and a place to promote embracing, accepting, and loving a menopaual self. It is NOT when someone is trying to stem off early symptoms and ASKING FOR HELP WITH THAT.
#menopause#perimenopause#feminism#it is feminist to embrace menopause#it is also feminist to focus on what your friend is asking for and providing that fucking support#get on the bus

CN sexism, transphobia
Something that’s been really troubling me is how I feel about menopause with regards to wanting to transition. The concept of going through menopause fills me with absolute dread and I want to make sure I transition before it gets to that point so I don’t go through it. But no one likes or wants to go through menopause, so if someone (very invasively) told me ‘you would rather transition rather than go through something nobody likes or enjoys but that is natural? What makes you so special that you should get to skip it?’ I wouldn’t exactly have an answer. It’s only as I get older that I’ve become aware of the effects of menopause on cis women, the immense stigma on it, and in particular the potential cognitive side effects. I would say that menopause awareness is maybe a few steps ahead of transition awareness but make no mistake, it is not very much ahead! I honestly hate seeing transmasc people on here using that argument that ‘everyone cares about [x] when cis women going through menopause have it’ (e.g. vaginal atrophy)- that argument signifies too much time reading ridiculous things TERFs are saying and not enough listening to what regular people deal with. (You don’t have to compulsively read what TERFs are saying online.) Because menopause is chronically under-cared about in our society and the tides are only just very slowly turning on it.
I don’t think I’m special so I shouldn’t have to go through menopause. But as someone who has always been very detatched from their own body I also don’t have a very good handle on what dysphoria looks like for me, so I could say it’s ok for me to say this because menopause would make me dysphoric, but I can’t honestly say that I know that. In fat activism there is the idea that a thin person saying ‘I support all fat people, including you the listener, but I don’t want to get fat myself’ is still fatphobic. And I agree- people do not need to say stuff like that to their fat friends! But in the same way I could say ‘I support anyone going through the menopause but I don’t want to go through it’. And in that case it’s ok for me to say that because I’m trans, or something? It may not be the same thing, but it still bothers me. They are both about someone’s personal relationship to their body. I’ve always hated the idea that an individual’s transness says Something about society, because we are just individuals, but there are other times when activists use this logic in an approving way. (Maybe the answer is that oppressions aren’t comparable, or something.)
I feel I can see a future for myself as a man, and I never could see a future before. Not because of anything dire, but because I just couldn’t. I thought about everything no more than a few months at a time. It would be so easy to read my words above in an incredibly biased way and use it for a transphobic screed, about how I would transition to avoid misogyny, in just the same way some transphobes insist all trans people are just hyper obsessed with gender roles. But at the same time, why sould they care so much about what I do with my body? I only get one life, we all do, and I’m rapidly approaching middle age and it’s scary to get older and still have so many uncertanties and so few people I can trust with them. But I do know that if I went through menopause just for them, the opinion havers, I would get nothing but misery. There’s no reward for suffering. (And I would say I wouldn’t want to support of people like this, but let’s face it, there would be no support from them.)
#transmasc#trans man#menopause#transition#some things: i know not everyone gets menopause symptoms#my mum says she did not and that this means i may not#but i can't count on that because 85% of people do have symptoms apparently#i'm 33 and that scarily is approaching middle age#i'm thin and the part about fat activism above-to be clear i 100% support fat activism#and i agree that thin people need to stop acting like getting fat is so terrible#for the post overall please engage me in good faith#because it is 100% intended in good faith#i'm happy to discuss but don't want to argue

i bet the stuffy nose thing has something to do with histamines the body releases at certain points during its cycle. i follow some people who have MCAS and i've heard them talk about getting flares during their periods. bodies are so weird!
I'm sorry English acronyms aren't my thing, MCAS?
I've read that it could be possibly be because one of the molecules our bodies release to fight off disease is also used to get rid of the uterine tissue. But it's only a hypothesis because that's another ✨ mysterious ✨ thing about menstruation 🙄
Edit: I search the MCAS thing and I found something about planes and I doubt it's the right acronym 🤣
#misc#answers#anonymous#can scientists actually take interest in a field that's concerning HALF the worldwide population?#now for me i can't complain much because the only one responsible for not knowing wtf is going in my uterus is 200% me#but it took years for my aunt to get her endometriosis diagnosis#and i have several colleagues seeing gynecologist for YEARS and having medical exams and still having no proper diagnosis#not to mention the one who's under contraceptive pills since she's around 15#and who's nobody wants to change that#even tho it is advised not to be under hormonal contraception from the beginning of your period to menopause#now i think contraceptive pills is great actually the best for contraception for sure (well I mean for people who can keep a schedule lmao)#and i will always support access to everyone needing it#but it shouldn't be the only solution to every period problem#it's not made for everyone#also can't believe they have problems for male contraception because it's too 'complicated'#but yet they somehow managed to create a contraceptive innovation that a 90% efficiency#all while knowing the bare minimum about how a uterus works

My mother's nutritionist literally encouraged her to grill every vegetable instead of boiling it or just boiling it (even non-raw leafy greens, if they must be boiled, like broccoli, then they need to be pan grilled afterwards), with a bit of garlic and olive oil usually, and sometimes chilli. Apparently not only it doesn't make them less healthy, but it's overall more healthy to consume them that way than just boiling it, something something about the way of cooking it helping boost things and make sure your body absorbs all the nutrition and gets your organs well in motion to break everything down with less issues.
I also heard of multiple nutritionists who both teach you the right food combo to get the most out of a meal (taste included but also nutrients wise), as well as encouraging their patients to have a least a fried food meal (how friend depends on the person I think) a week, I think it has something something with activating the liver and intestine properly? These are also the same people who usually help patients who need to maintain a certain diet for health reasons (chemotherapy, surgery, colon disorders, allergies etc.)
But yeah, healthy doesn't necessarily mean boring or lacking taste, from my experience usually the opposite.
#she literally referred to boiled only broccoli as being essentially just sugar#cause you get less benefits from that type of cooking overall#there are also food combo that boost things more#dried fruit with fresh fruit on a certain percentage#my brother's nutritionist is the same#some food combos allow you to benefit from nutritients you wouldn't have been able to extract as properly otherwise#food science is an amazing hack and fantastic#and not very well known#but as it turns out very tasty#also on that note a good nutritionist will know BMI is bullshit#they might take into account if you want to be thinner#but a. they will stop you when they believe you need to maintain fat for some reason#and b. they will make it clear that losing fat DOES NOT MEAN losing weight#in that case their goal is to help you build muscle so you can support your bones which - you guessed it - will keep your weight the same#if not increase it in a lot of cases#my ma wants to be thinner as part of her secondary goals (primary is managing colon disease and menopause)#she did go down in size but her weight is exactly the same#and her nutritionist told her she is not allowed to go down in fat from now on cause she needs a degree of fat storage at her age#but yeah run away from diets that want you to lose weight and boil everything and restrict meals they are red flags#my ma who didn't eat a lot most of her life started eating three times a day plus two snacks every day since meeting her nutritionist#her colitis got manageable and she got fried food in her diet#and she now eats ONE MAIN and A SIDE every main meal#and she is allowed dessert and a good breakfast and snacks throughout the day#she has very few restrictions and they are all related to her colitis or her allergies or her not liking the food#note: if she hates a food the nutritionist will NOT put it in her diet or even suggest it#her first question was what food my mother LIKED and what she was ABSOLUTELY going to want to eat frequently#she loves leafy greens and fish and rice so she has lotsa those#and she is encouraged to eat whatever pie it is she makes herself#and she is free to go out for dinner so long as she goes back to her routine the next day#she also has emergency plans for when her colitis acts up too much due to stress

St. John’s Wort: An Ancient Herb with Modern Benefits
St. John’s Wort, known scientifically as Hypericum perforatum, is a plant with a long history of use in natural medicine. It’s been around for over 2,000 years, first recommended by Greek physicians who believed in its healing powers—and even thought it had some mystical, protective qualities.
