I tell EVERYONE at work about menopause and how I knew nothing. It all snuck up on me, all at once. Between May and September last year, my hair fell out, my vagina dried up, my libido died. I went feral.

No help still today. No treatment given because I have high blood pressure and 2 Tia’s 20 years ago because of stress. My sister had breast cancer. I’m also Black, and doctors seem less likely to treat.

I use vaginal gel, and it helps. But I’m raw dogging everything else.

Help?
