Naomi, early menopause and finding love after
Naomi had an early menopause. She was just 36 years of age when she stopped menstruating. Naomi said:
“Going through the menopause at such a young age was not easy, especially during a time when there was so little information available about it,”
“Mood swings, night sweats, and migraines…I was feeling like I was spiralling out of control.”
But she decided to take charge of her life herself. She revealed:
“A lot of freedom came in the self-acknowledgement. I had those voices in the back of my mind reminding me how old women are let out to pasture, but there was a lure to this desire to be authentic, to crawl from behind the invisible wall and just acknowledge for myself something that everyone could have probably guessed.”
And fortunately, she found Billy and her midlife romance blossomed. And now she is happy. She added:
“There’s growing recognition that women’s stories don’t end at a certain age. It’s a natural phase of life which half the population is going to go through.”
