Redefining Ageing
Psychological issues during menopause affect nearly 50-70% of women, significantly impacting their mental and physical well-being. From mood swings and anxiety to depression and cognitive changes, these challenges can alter a woman's quality of life. Addressing these issues is crucial as they affect emotional resilience, relationships, and even overall health. With proper awareness, timely intervention, and support, we can empower women to navigate this phase with confidence and clarity.
