Welcome back to Beyond the Words! I'm Dimple Thakrar. Today, I'm sharing a deeply personal experience - my journey through menopause. I want to emphasize that I'm not a medical professional, just a woman sharing her story.

I open up about my family's history with ovarian issues and losing my mother to it. This led to a decision for my sisters and me to undergo preventive hysterectomies. The aftermath was unexpected - surgery-induced menopause. The emotional and physical toll was immense. Finally, hormone replacement therapy (HRT) provided relief, but it came with its own challenges.

Key Takeaways:

• Menopause is often misunderstood and stigmatized, but it's a natural phase for many women.
• HRT can be a crucial lifeline for those struggling with menopausal symptoms.
• Compassion is vital, both for oneself and for those supporting women going through this transition.
• Understanding and seeking help for menopausal symptoms is crucial for overall well-being.

Remember, you're not alone. Seek the support you need, and approach this phase with compassion and understanding. Take care. - Dimple x
