Menopause affects 100% of women. And yet, how many of us enter this stage without the slightest idea of what to expect?

You may have heard of hot flashes without realizing they can last for years. You might have noticed changes in your periods without knowing if you’ve reached menopause yet. You may feel uncomfortable discussing intimate dryness, urinary leaks, or a drop in libido, even with your doctor.

Meanwhile, you keep being told it’s "just part of aging," or worse, that you just have to "deal with it."

Until the day you meet someone who finally explains what is really happening in your body. Someone who tells you that, no, you don’t just have to endure it. That concrete solutions exist, both medical and natural. And that menopause can even become a real opportunity to refocus on yourself.

That is exactly what Odile Bagot, a gynecologist with over 25 years of experience, offers you in Daring Menopause: the keys to understanding your body, asking your doctor the right questions, and living this transition with peace of mind, free from taboos.
