Menopause - Changing attitudes about "the change."

As women, many of us get our ideas of what to expect from menopause from our mothers, who may have called it "the change," or "change of life." Yet while every woman's menopause experience is different, the one thing we share has traditionally been a reluctance to talk about it openly.

But today's woman doesn't just accept the symptoms of menopause. Her generation is more informed and tuned-in than ever. And she uses the Internet to educate herself about hormone therapy, and empower herself with knowledge on the benefits of nutrition, vitamins, exercise and natural alternatives, including supplements like Estroven.

And most importantly - she talks. To her sisters, her friends, her doctor and even her partners. Menopause is no longer just the end of something. It can be a new beginning as well.
