The Dribble (Blogs are so boring)

For some women menopause comes with no or few symptoms. But for others, it can have a really negative impact. Mood swings like you’re a 17 year-old again. Then add in night sweats, hot flushes and vaginal dryness and if this isn't enough there's more.

But you don’t have to struggle your way through it. In today's blog, we will discuss the triggers and signs of menopause, how to prepare, the stages of menopause and hormone replacement therapy.

This month (October) is Menopause Awareness Month and the 18th is World Menopause Day. The purpose of this month and day is to raise widespread awareness and educate women and professionals on support and treatment options to help improve the health and wellbeing of women across the planet.

Menopause symptoms can be severe and have a big detrimental impact on those affected. Education is the key for women to know what to expect and know where and how to get support if and when they need it.

It’s key to be aware that just because you don’t have an issue yet, doesn’t mean you have a strong pelvic floor - it’s a muscle like any other - if you don’t use it, it’ll become weak. The Secret Whispers® Kegel Weight Kit is like a weighted tampon. Once inserted into your vagina, gravity does its bit and the correct pelvic floor muscles engage to keep it in - think about it as a dumbbell for your pelvic floor. And talking of tampons, Jo recalled the first time she saw a tampon and remembered her thoughts were “What?? It goes where??” and she was having the same thoughts seeing my pelvic floor toner! I’d love to know your first thoughts on seeing it?

What drives me in this quest is that there’s so much awareness that needs raising but I have to tell you, when I hear from a woman, who’s used my product, telling me “I’m pad-free, Julie!” I do a little dance!
