3

Menopause happens to Every Woman

4

It is a Major Event in a Woman’s Life

Seven out of ten women will

experience debilitating symptoms

and Suffer in Silence

I can show you a Menopause

Solution that works!

Change happens between age 35 – 55 (bet you didn’t know that!)

You need to know about this stuff! What if you had all these symptoms thrown at you at one time?

5

Itchy Bitchy Sweaty Sleepy Bloated Forgetful Psycho!

Is this the Anger

Management Course? Everybody is getting at me!

6

Is this you?

7

Do all women go through menopause?

I’m supposed to cope, aren’t I?

• This is terrible. Am I the only one it’s

happening to?

• Am I going nuts?

• I’m feeling Stressed and Anxious

• Can’t tell anybody

• I feel so miserable

• I might lose my job

• Part-time or resign?

All this because of hormones!

Men tell me...

8

Menopause is like a

Hurricane...

9

Because so little

is understood by

either men or

women

The answer is so simple – I

can show you a Menopause

Solution that works!

Dangerous and Deadly!

Symptoms are mis-diagnosed

10

Feeling bonkers?

Underperforming?

Can’t Cope?

Must be stress & anxiety, right?

Mental Health

11

Stress and Anxiety are surely

in the mental health

spectrum?

Prescribe Anti-Depressants?

but why?

It’s Hormonal!

But, Wait! What am I talking about...

12

You may think this looks as if

I am making a case against

employing women...

The complete

opposite – Women

are an Assset

13

And it’s why I want you to sit up and Listen!

Menopause: 7/10 Women Suffer in Silence!

What are the Health Issues?

14

Mental health is now talked about much more

openly BUT women are being wrongly

diagnosed because...

• Women are:

• Emotional and crying

• Feeling depressed

• Showing signs of anxiety

Actually, it’s Hormones!

Menopause, like purberty, is NOT a disease

but symptoms can last up to 15 years

15

No matter how bad women feel at work...

Menopause is not discussed

Managers embarrassed or lack

experience

Occ Health & HR also lack knowledge

Silence can lead to other health

concerns

The Solution is Simple!

16

These Forward-Thinking Organisations

acknowledge Menopause in the Workplace

Royal College of Nursing

National Union of Teachers

TUC

BAWP (British Association of Women Police)

SAS (Schools Advisory Service)

What these organisations are saying...

17

They are recognising

menopause and want to help

those affected without making

it an issue

They are all looking at ways

to make this simple for all

concerned

18

Older Workforce?

Yes! And ...?

Historically pipe and slippers

Now forced to work longer (and full time)

There are Huge Benefits to utilising an older workforce

This is breaking new ground – we’remaking

history

But, is sickness absenteeism on the increase?

Do you know why?

The solution to menopause is So Simple
