As people with cystic fibrosis live longer, with a life expectancy currently at about 56 years old, many women with CF will be going through menopause. I recently spoke to doctors at a hospital gathering, and recommended they speak to women with CF about menopause. They agreed. It’s time.
There is so little discussion and education about women and menopause in general. I recently listened to a podcast by Mel Robbins about menopause, and then saw menopause activist Ellen Dolgen on CBS News Sunday Morning, and reached out to her.
Dolgen is a best-selling author, speaker and Creator of Fearless Vagina – A Crash Course in Mastering Menopause. Her frankness in this podcast is delightful. It’s All About Empowerment: My motto is: “Suffering in silence is OUT! Reaching out is IN!” Let’s shatter the stigma surrounding menopause and support one another. She offers an online course for women in all stages of menopause which I highly recommend and have signed up for.
