Can you prepare for a good menopause? Perhaps start by thinking of it as a ‘second spring’
There’s a hilarious sequence of events in Miranda July’s latest book, All Fours, in which the central character looks at a graph that shows how oestrogen goes off a cliff during menopause. Worried about what this might mean for her sex drive, she desperately surveys her older friends about their experiences, gathering anecdotes and wisdom in a valiant effort to be prepared for the onslaught.
But can you war game a good menopause? Many women in their 30s or 40s may be wondering, given awareness of this momentous life transition is finally a moment.
