What’s Hot…I Mean Cool? The Poise Fab 5 #PoiseFab5

It’s funny how things change, isn’t it? Growing up in England I was never without a coat, always carried an umbrella, never wore shorts, and generally sported a sweater 10 months of the year. During the so-called summer, I wore slighty lighter clothes, but still wore sweaters at night. These days I literally can’t remember the last time I wore a sweater during the winter. Maybe I am immune to the cold, but even in winter I can feel overheated if I dress in too many layers. In fact, I purchased a winter coat that was two coats in one and I rarely wear the two coats. One is enough.

I’ve always “run” hot. I’m easily overheated. I can wear the lightest of jackets until the first snowfall. I have to wonder if I will notice the menopause. Will I simply think…phew…it sure is hot in here…as I enter the drug store…only to shrug, and move on to my next errand? Or will menopause symptoms be so noticeable that I would have to be blind to not notice? I wonder…

I spotted this kettle and immediately thought of hot flashes. What reminds you of the menopause?

While I haven’t yet started the menopause, a few of my friends have started to show symptoms. With World Menopause Day on the horizon…October 18, 2012…let’s talk about what menopause looks like. Aging? Hot flashes? Let’s have The 2nd Talk.

What are the symptoms of menopause?

Menopause refers to all symptoms experienced by a woman before or after the cessation of menopause per WebMD. Women experience symptoms ranging from hot flashes to sleep issues to changes in sexual response. Most will experience symptoms after age 40.
