1. Near total elimination of hot flashes. I have gone from roughly 15 per day to just one in the past week. 2. I no longer randomly burst into tears for no reason whatsoever. 3. I actually sleep through the night. 4. The joint pain I felt every time I stood up is completely gone.

Unpopular opinion: White Lotus is a lot like those seven minute long fb videos that suck you in and keep promising a payoff which never happens until the last five seconds. I watched the first season and gave up halfway through the second.

Another fun fact that no one tells you about going through menopause: You apparently become INSANELY attractive to mosquitoes. I think it has something to do with rising body temperature. Stock up on lavender oil and/or bug spray, ladies. You’re gonna need it. #Menopause #Perimenopause #GenX
