This seems to be a hot topic in other forums atm. This was posted on the thread suggesting this forum.
"Don't read all the forums Matilda, it's that simple. I guess you have gone through menopause or have not started yet."
This is the second time the M word has been mentioned (not Matilda) in the last week or so - can't remember if the same person.
In the DR, especially here in the campo, women have no idea what it is, when it happens, why it happens, and in fact several in their late 50s have come to me thinking they have cancer when their periods stop. Others do have cancer and think it is this mysterious menopause.
Anyone have any experience of how Dominican ladies deal with this, or if they know about it. Do they take HRT here or use natural remedies, or just put up with it?
Remember ladies only to reply, post.
