Interesting article about menopause & the workplace

Just watching a segment about it on the Today Show. Quite interesting. 

@Sister I've made a deliberate choice to talk about it openly as a result of the prevalent hush hush attitude. I'm going to 'be the change' in more ways than one.

What's really interesting about the article is that it exists at all.  Menopause is still considered to be a taboo subject or at least an embarrassing one (much like menstruation, really, but worse).  I'm fortunate in that my line manager is a woman of 70 and went through some tricky times with menopause herself - and she's not backward in talking about it.

A great read. Most  of the workforce I'm in...finding some estrogen is a struggle. We are all around same age. Haha. And I have fans hidden in bags and office trays. I actually bought a desk fan for one colleague as she was always hot. Haha.
