I saw you Maryjane.  I thought you were very articulate considering the small slot you had, you spoke really well and looked good too.  All in all I thought it was good and is one step closer to highlighting a taboo subject; maybe the tide is turning x

I agree you were brilliant Maryjane  ;) such a difficult and personal topic.

It's great people are talking about the menopause. It has ruined my life for 8 years.

I don't no if you have FB to see this , but it's from the BMS on menopause matters FB today

The highest % 51% in a survey say “ 51% of women say that there menopause had affected their sex lives “ ......yet it is the most brushed under the carpet , and that includes via the medical profession.😡

OK - who else saw the other thread about this?   I've trawled my 'profile' as far back as 1 Sept., as well as looking in all the rooms on here - it's gone!  I know that there was another comment about this ...........

Channel 5 have a playback thing that you can sign up to - I have not investigated whether they include this programme in it yet as it does not support Microsoft explorer from what I have seen.  Firefox and Chrome ok.

I d been trying to find it...sadly the 5 News is not repeated or available to watch on 5 player...I guess because it's on numerous times during the day.  I found a clip of it (link below, scroll down)  but not the whole programme...maybe it will be uploaded to YouTube!
