It doesn’t matter whether you’re an Oscar-winning actress or the woman next door—perimenopause is a natural life transition that every woman will go through.
I’m so grateful to see women like Penélope Cruz and Olivia Wilde having such an open and honest conversation about perimenopause. Every conversation like this helps break the silence, reduce the stigma, and reminds millions of women that they’re not alone.
Penélope is absolutely right when she says perimenopause can begin around 40—and for some women, it can start even earlier. Yet so many women don’t realise what’s happening because we simply haven’t talked about it enough.
The more we normalise these conversations, the more women will recognise the signs earlier, seek support, and feel empowered to take control of their health.
Thank you, , Penelope and , for helping move this conversation forward. 💜
