Well, I may have had brain fog during my menopause transition. I don’t recall, associating it with menopause. So I can’t really speak to that however, I would’ve easily dismissed it as a personality flaw but looking back, I wonder if the times that I was so hard on myself for not being able to problem solve or troubleshoot could’ve been based on the menopause experience and not my lack of knowledge or skills in general.

Absolutely the puberty/peri-and menopause link has, increasingly, made perfect sense and I can look back now and connect so many of the issues and symptoms I experienced during adolescence with this hormonal transition (including debilitating, at one stage, anxiety during school years). So important in helping us to help the young women in our lives, too, and for us to be able to reframe it in a way that helps makes sense of all we've been through, as a whole. And, thanks to the work of Dr Mosconi, yourself and others passionate about research and education, help ourselves and others, too! 🙏❤️
