Meet Lou & Lize lifelong friends proving having someone to talk to through all of this is a lifesaver

We all know that navigating the early stages of our menopause can feel impossible at times. The symptoms sneak up on us and get subsumed into the stresses of our everyday lives. Having someone to talk to can be a lifeline and in this episode I’m chatting to Lou & Lize, 2 lifelong friends about how much they helped each other recognise the crazy early symptoms. Severe wind anyone!?


How they tried every supplement and lifestyle change before going down the HRT route, but it wasn’t the fear of cancer that made them delay starting HRT, it was the fear of hitting a brick wall and not getting the respect they deserved at the GPs. But actually they discovered things are changing for the better and the reality wasn't that bad.
