The Truth About Menopause & Perimenopause: Thriving In Your 30s, 40s, 50s, & Beyond
Lots of women are afraid of perimenopause and menopause, but they shouldn’t have to be. Tamsen Fadal is paving the way for a better future for women starting menopause by debunking fears and fighting for visibility.
