c/menopause is pretty much self-explantory

exactly, I was super excited to see that science is digging deeper into estrogen's effects. We are seeing more proof that estrogen is necessary for so many of our bodily systems and for those of us in menopause, the proof is already there!

Excellent article. This especially...

Mainstream wellness was, to lean further into cliches, a Band-Aid on a bullet wound. I was actively pursuing better mental and physical health, a key piece of a wellness journey, but I wasn’t taking the time to establish what felt good to me. I was trying to fit into the trendiness of wellness, and I desperately wanted the freedom it proclaimed I could have if I bought enough stuff. Nowadays, I define wellness as, “Doing what feels good and aligns with what I believe I need in this moment.”

Menopause affects Black women differently as well..earlier, more hot flashes, and we need to bring awareness to this too.
