Online Menopause Support Session

My name is Jane, and I’m delighted to be joining the Menopause Care team. Fourteen years ago, at the age of 44, I was suddenly thrust into perimenopause after undergoing surgery to remove my ovary. For six difficult years, I battled severe symptoms, only to be treated with antidepressants and the mini pill. It wasn’t until I took matters into my own hands—through extensive research and persistence—that I finally recognised I was in perimenopause, a realisation that came just before reaching a critical low point. This personal experience fuelled my passion to create several social media support groups, offering a space for women to connect and share their experiences. The overwhelming growth of these groups has allowed me to support and guide countless women daily, helping them access the right care to manage their symptoms effectively.
