Für eine #Menopause ohne Schwurbel!
Viele Ärzt:innen (Orthopädie, Gyn, Haus), kommen nicht darauf, dass Gelenkschmerzen von Frauen in der mittleren Lebensphase mit dem Östrogenrückgang aufgrund der #Menopause zu tun haben könnten & behandeln ihre Patientinnen nicht richtig - obwohl dieser Zusammenhang seit 100 Jahren bekannt ist!
My mom had hot flashes for 50 years. They started well before menopause. Which is something I wish I knew before my orchiectomy. Now, I have horrendous hot flashes, which will likely continue for the rest of my life.
Do I regret my gender-affirming surgery? Not at all!
I would rather live the rest of my life with hot flashes than a single day longer in a body that did not feel like my own!
There is a reason that so few trans people regret their gender-affirming surgeries. It's because we have them to affirm the truth. When you embrace the Spirit of Truth, you have no regrets.
Happy Transgender Day of Visibility!
The supplements which help me feel less like shit are practically a meal unto themselves.
I take these to help treat my long COVID, elevated cholesterol levels, and bone density loss. #LongCovid #supplements #BoneDensity #cholesterol #PostMenopause #menopause

- suicidal thoughts. How is it that there is no information anywhere unless you search for it yourself? Why are we not taught about this in school? Poor treatment of the menopause can cause Alzheimer’s as well as heart problems. So why the silence? #menopause #health #beaware
New Menopause exhibit opens March 1st in London, UK at the @vagina_museum

They had to start a GoFundMe because none of the 15 arts and heritage funders they approached wanted to support an exhibition on menopause! They are still taking donations: https://www.gofundme.com/f/r9tszw
To get you excited about our upcoming #Menopause exhibition, here's an old thread exploring why we go through menopause based on insights from killer whales! https://masto.ai/@vagina_museum/110378569676074998
Very interesting review of studies on the use of creatine supplements for female health. Of particular note is the benefit to post-menopausal women, with the expected help in increasing muscle strength, but also in countering depressive moods. #menopause #creatine #depression
Possibly useful #menopause related article for anyone in possession of a minge:
I'm on #HRT because my mental health plummeted with menopause - something else people aren't aware can happen; I got bad suicidal ideation - but honestly, the physical symptoms some people go through are so horrific I'll take the headweasels, thank you. A friend has been talking about this one on FB and a number of other cis women have said 'yeah, same' so this condition isn't rare. And the repeated UTIs as a result of tissue thinning in much older cis women can affect cognition; I saw it in my own grandmother, who could appear dotty when what she needed was antibiotics.
It's the last few hours before we close our #Menopause fundraiser. The clock is ticking! Will you join hundreds of people in supporting an exhibition that no arts or heritage funder would? https://www.gofundme.com/f/r9tszw
On Friday we are closing our #Menopause fundraiser. It's time for a last hurrah of fundraising for this programme! We raised about half of our target, which is enough for the exhibition to open to the public on 1st March, but we need more to do this topic justice! https://www.gofundme.com/f/r9tszw
Generation M: Living Well in Perimenopause and Menopause by Jessica Shepherd, 2024
Evidence-based. Lifestyle approved. The practical guide you need for the life you want.
Finally, here is a fresh plan for a new generation entering perimenopause and menopause.
Had my 1st B12 injection. Turns out I'm having 6 within 2 weeks (every 2nd working day)! Then every 3 months.
Fingers crossed for a little more energy
