September is Menopause Awareness Month! I am very pleased to be able to make you aware of that fast and also to give you a little information. We all can remember the birds and the bees talk (puberty) our parent's gave us, but no one really told us about menopause! It is time for that 2nd talk! Menopause commonly begins between the ages of 40 and 58, BUT some not so lucky women do start menopause earlier. (ME!) If you ask your mom when her symptoms began, you should have an idea for yourself! Symptoms of menopause include:
- Mood Swings
- Decreased Sex Drive
- Hot Flashes
- Sweating
- Racing Heart
- Headaches
- Vaginal Dryness
- Trouble Sleeping
After all the sweating, I was offered the opportunity to try out some Poise products that can help us ease these symptoms. WOOHOO! When I learned about the Poise Feminine Wellness products, which are carried by Walmart, I hopped online to learn more about it! You can also print a coupon there! When my hubby came home, we headed out to pick up the products! My Walmart had coupons on the shelf to save $1 off 2, which was perfect for me since I forgot to print one at home. I purchase the four products our Walmart carried!

I planned a Meno-Pause party for Thursday, but it was moved to Friday. Then on Friday, several friends could not attend, so today, we took the party to my friend! Mama, my BFF, my daughter and I went out to eat at TGI Friday's and enjoy our break! We opened each of the products and everyone had to smell and feel each of them. And then, as if on cue, I had a hot flash! OMG, I love that body cooling gel! My daughter thought the products were amusing, but she was glad to see something help cool me off! My mom and my BFF snagged the cooling towelettes from me, and both have been using them! We had a blast having the 2nd TALK! We all know a little more, and my teenage daughter now is prepared!
