Our biology may be the same though our lived experiences are not. We can not validate #perimenopause #menopause experiences on one group that is constantly represented in mainstream media #menopausehealthinequalities

A single teacher can be a great starting point, but never the final destination. #perimenopause #menopause is a maze, not a straight path. Learn from doctors, researchers, cultural perspectives and lived experiences.

The #perimenopause #menopause conversation must be bigger, wider than one voice, more diverse than one experience. There is no one menopause. And no one way through it.

Some will say: HRT/ MHT is the only way. Others will say: HRT/ MHT is dangerous. The truth? It depends on you. There is no universal #perimenopause #menopause solution, only personal ones. Stay informed, not indoctrinated.

#perimenopause #menopause isn’t a one size fits all journey. What works for one person may not work for another. The best thing you can do? Stay curious. Ask questions. Seek out different perspectives.

#perimenopause #menopause HRT/ MHT is life-changing for some, but not for all. Lifestyle changes help many, but not alone. Supplements? Alternative therapies? They have their place. The key? Knowing that no single approach is the answer for everyone.

Time carries most of the weight. From menstruation to #perimenopause .#menopause, building inclusive routines and habits creates a foundation for change. Diversity isn’t an add-on, it’s the compounding force that transforms individual journeys into collective strength.

One doctor/ health care professional/ GP dismisses your symptoms? Find another. One influencer swears by a supplement? Do your research. One #perimenopause #menopause ‘guru’ claims their way is the way? Beware the student of one teacher.

Beware the student of one teacher. A good idea spirals into dogma when applied to everything. #perimenopause #menopause is no different. No one person has all the answers, and no single approach works for everyone. Stay open. Learn from many.

If the sun loses its mass, the other planets will no longer exist. Take time for your #perimenopause #menopause sun mass, as the other planets orbiting you will be affected too. It’s important to prioritise yourself as well.

In #perimenopause #menopause, assuming that telling someone to ‘do this’ or ‘do that’ will be simple for them to follow is painfully ignorant. We often don’t truly understand the emotional and mental consequences of such words.

Last night, we held our first event of 2025: Does #menopause #perimenopause Cause Pelvic Floor Changes? A huge thanks to @Fisiwe Guga Muvirimi, Physiotherapist and co-host @blkmenobeyond. This marks the start of our 5th year running these events, and we couldn’t be more grateful.
