The power of Knowing Beforehand 
“I’m too Young to Bother With Menopause! It’s not something I want to talk about now that I’m still very young. I’ll think about it when I get to that bridge”
This was my response in my 30s whenever anyone attempted to bring up the subject and unfortunately, I never heard it mentioned by my dearest mom either. I’m not sure if it was because she didn’t experience  the symptoms as I don’t remember ever seeing or hearing her say anything about hot flashes or perhaps I was too naive to notice. I was totally uninformed about the whole concept. Quite frankly, I don’t believe that I would have been interested in learning about anything of the sort at the time in my life when I was still dealing with menstrual cramps and all that. 
Overall, increasing education and awareness about menopause, its potential impact on health and well-being, and strategies for managing menopausal symptoms can help address misconceptions and encourage women of all ages to learn about this important life transition.
