Positive Words For Menopause – Advice From Fleabag

These positive words for menopause give us all hope. Such a powerful piece of work. I really think this sums up the pain, but ultimately, the positive empowerment of the menopause transition.

“Women are born with pain built in,” she says. “It’s our physical destiny: period pains, sore boobs, childbirth, you know. We carry it within ourselves throughout our lives, men don’t.

“We have it all going on in here inside, we have pain on a cycle for years and years and years and then just when you feel you are making peace with it all, what happens?

The menopause comes, the f****** menopause comes, and it is the most wonderful f****** thing in the world. And yes, your entire pelvic floor crumbles and you get f****** hot and no one cares. But then you’re free, no longer a slave, no longer a machine with parts, you’re just a person, in business.”

Sometimes its hard to find positive words for menopause so this scene is absolutely refreshing. Menopause is a powerful and empowering transition to the second and most exciting period of your life and its nice to see it recognised as such…
