Agreed. I think this label appeals to these title writers due to the alliteration in Menopause and Moment. Maybe they should consider Menopause Momentum!
"Menopause is having a moment," according to The Daily. Pretty great episode! Check it out: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-daily/id1200361736?i=1000622626489

Thanks so much for your input! It's awesome the pill has helped with your insomnia! I've struggled with insomnia my whole life, and then peri happened, and now I have megaforce insomnia! :( I'd consider taking out the Mirena except that it is the only thing that has helped with my very heavy bleeding, another one of my terrible gifts from the peri gods.

Thanks so much for your input - I appreciate it! ❤️
Hey y'all, I've been boycotting reddit and don't have access to the Menopause wiki, so I'm hoping one of you lovely people can help me. I am perimenopausal (VERY), and I've been using the estradiol patch for a while along with the Mirena to manage my symptoms. I'm currently using the .075 patch. My doctor also prescribed Progesterone to take as needed for sleep (100 mg). My question is this; do I need to take the Progesterone pill daily, or is it fine to use it as needed for sleep, considering I am already getting Progestin in the Mirena? Thanks for your help!

Hey friend, I hear you. I have had a number of moments over the years, including the last few days, of not being able to take it anymore. So much joint pain, so much insomnia, so much sadness, so much shit! I cannot find relief from these debilitating symptoms, and many times, it just feels like too much. I'm turning 45 next week, I've been experiencing terrible peri symptoms since I was 37, and it all feels so unfair. When will it end? Why does it have to be so bad? Why is there so little help out there for us? I just want you to know you are not alone, and this shit is the worst. Hugs!
