There is no argument that the symptoms of menopause and perimenopause can be tough, awful, annoying and downright terrible, but should we be letting the world know about the worst of the worst?

There are studies to suggest that catastrophising the symptoms of menopause could actually be making our experience with this stage of life worse, and silencing an entire cohort of women who don't experience these extremes at all.

The CEO of Jean Hailes talks us through the thought process behind asking us not to dive into the depths of the worst of menopause.
