The scandal of the menopause.
Inadequate provision for women thru ignorance & disinterest of medical establishment despite the availability of cheap solution via HRT. This survey quotes 51% have reduced hours at work, 47% where colleagues have noticed reduced work performance 1/x

Just as women reach their career peak 45-55 many are confronted with the symptoms; flushes, anxiety etc. Rather than cheap HRT, medical and pharma seem to prefer pumping them with anti-depressants. We are losing a national resource, doctors, teachers, lawyers etc.
We are not 2/x

Caring for our society’s main carers -women- just as they face the challenge of teenagers and ageing parents. No wonder women are underrepresented in the boardroom having already had the disadvantage, career-wise, of bringing up a family. A form of sex discrimination?

I am not a healthcare professional, but my wife is, and this her specialisation. I would ask my followers to RT and raise awareness of this issue. Especially the many impressive women I follow. EG @fascinatorfun @JMPSimor @HeleneBismarck @carolecadwalla @CarolineLucas
