I fought the symptoms of menopause for too long. I went to see an Endocrinologist and she suggested that I add Amberen to my supplement routine. I don't know how, but after taking Amberen Menopause Relief after the 2nd week, I began to feel the fog lift, the switch flipped, and I slowly recognized parts of myself that had once become unfamiliar.

I giggled when I saw the description say that it helped with the “old people smell”. Hey, menopause will do your natural scent dirty. If this persimmon soap can help with the old people smell, surely, it can help with the menopause smell.

I've found that the combination of living where there is hard water and menopause symptoms wreck havoc on my skin.

I've learned that the women before me didn't share some truths about menopause. So I will share with you. The fear that I used to have when I was having a cycle was sneezing. Coughing. Even laughing too hard during that period of life was a double edge sword. Now in menopause, it's the same worry. Will I leak through if I laugh to hard. If I sneeze too hard, will I leak. If I don't make it to the bathroom in time, will I have that odor that lingers. I started wearing leak proof underwear for bladder control to give me some peace of mind. I also didn't want to feel like I had on a giant, crunchy diaper.
