βœ… Prioritise Sleep Create a relaxing bedtime routine and keep your bedroom cool and comfortable.
βœ… Manage Stress Try mindfulness, deep breathing, yoga, reading, or spending time outdoors.
βœ… Stay Hydrated Drinking plenty of water can help with general wellbeing and may reduce some symptoms.

πŸŒΈπŸ’œ WORLD MENOPAUSE DAY: Let's Talk About Menopause πŸ’œπŸŒΈ

Menopause is a natural stage of life, yet many women still feel uncomfortable talking about it. Today, let's raise awareness and support one another.

πŸ”Ή Menopause usually happens between the ages of 45 and 55.
πŸ”Ή It officially begins when a woman has gone 12 months without a menstrual period.
πŸ”ΉSymptoms can vary greatly from person to person.
πŸ”Ή Common symptoms include hot flushes, night sweats, mood changes, tiredness, brain fog, sleep difficulties, and joint aches.
πŸ”Ή Menopause can also affect confidence, relationships, work, and overall wellbeing.
πŸ”Ή Every woman's experience is different. There is no "normal" way to experience menopause.

πŸ’œ The most important fact of all: You are not alone. Millions of women experience menopause, and support, advice, and treatments are available.
Let's continue the conversation, reduce stigma, and support women's health at every stage of life.
