What are we talking about here? Menopause. These are some of the symptoms, emotions, issues and ways in which women are dealing with menopause.
I’ve been enjoying and learning so much by reading comments written by women like you and me at Poise’s the2ndtalk.com. Women are sharing their experiences and questions about menopause and it’s really quite liberating! Our mothers never spoke much about menopause, so when she was going thru it we either avoided the subject or our mothers completely. Now we’re so much more knowledgeable about what to expect with the changes in our bodies, but we still have so many questions.

On top of everything else, I have incontinence form a 2006 neck surgery gone very bad. I thought the sweats were going to be the worst thing to deal with-I was wrong!
