Welcome to Litsy!

- Glosses over root causes of hormone imbalances
- Never discusses nutrition or herbal remedies like wild yam cream or vitex chasteberry
- No mention of history of menopause in women from different cultures

Just another Rockefeller-indoctrinated physician only pushing FDA-regulated pharmaceuticals and warning the use of natural compounding facilities.

Informative for sure, but limited to Big Pharma knowledge only.

Endometrial hyperplasia: a precancerous condition where the uterine lining gets extra thick due to estrogen dominance. Symptoms include heavy periods and bleeding between periods.

This happens to post-menopausal woman only given estrogen without progestins for hormone replacement therapy.

This can also happen in aging or overweight women with hormone imbalances.

Ok, but what is the root cause of the hormone imbalances? 🤔 My guess? Frankinfood

1. We Do Not Care if you do not approve of pitbulls. Our dog happens to be a squishy marshmallow who thinks she's a pug dog. We could not love her more. #pitbullsoflitsy

2. We Do Not Care that we have to hire people to clean our home every month. We are disabled and it would not otherwise get clean. Also, we always tip well. We Do Not Care that we can't afford it. We are a princess, damn it!

Great idea, @dabbe ! I love Melani‘s videos (she makes me laugh— I always have glasses on my head too). Plus reading through what others wrote on Litsy today makes me feel not so alone on this journey. #WDNCW

(Tagged an excellent perimenopause/menopause book I read earlier this year. Highly recommended.)

As a 49 yo woman, I felt that parts of this book were so well written and hilarious, and other parts were so “WTF?”. Like a raunchy comedian who is so funny…and then tells a joke that makes you think “ok, that‘s too far.” I‘m not sure who or if I‘d recommend this, but I flew through it in 24 hours, and am both confused by and understand completely what I just read.

There were a few things about this book that I just could get past. Not for me. ⭐️⭐️

Who will win the Women's Prize today????

I JUST RECORDED FOR 50 MINUTES. THEN WHEN I WATCHED THE VIDEO BACK MY MIC HAD SWITCHED OFF 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

So I had to do it all over again but EVEN MORE TIRED.

And now it's 2am and I need to edit them so can post on time before Women's Prize announcement.

On the plus side I think I was a lot less rude about some of the books the second time 🤣🤣

A book I finished last weekend as I try and read the women's prize shortlist. Interesting to be in the head of a 45 year old artist who hits a mid life crisis as she goes on a cross country drive to NY but stops halfway where she renovates a motel room + has a non consummated sexual encounter with a ynger man. What follows is the exploration of her sexual encounters as she rationalises her life. Its taken me a week to process, + still not sure.
