Openness Surrounding Women’s Health

For too long women have suffered menopause in secret. In the past, people didn’t even believe menopause was real. It was viewed as a myth or rumor. At one point, menopause was even thought of as a disease. Vaginal dryness was considered a kind of sickness. Once a woman started menopause, it was as though her life was over.

We know now that menopause is a normal and natural occurrence in the life of a woman. But is the lack of openness on the subject helping those going through menopause? Or is it just forcing them to continue suffering in secret?

Should We Be Talking About It More?

 Going through menopause can be an emotionally charged time. Maybe talking about it isn’t the solution, because it can easily bring up feelings of inadequacy. However, people should be educated better about menopause and what kind of changes will be taking place. Husbands should know about the effects of menopause including vaginal dryness. Your wife may not want to have sex because of how painful it can be.

Most men don’t know anything about vaginal dryness during menopause and they can get irritated because of the decrease in sex. Without an understanding of how menopause works, men can become upset and impatient with this situation.

How Should We Educate About Menopause?
