Menopause
"The change of life." That's the polite way of saying hot flashes, night sweats, skin changes, mood swings, insomnia, and all the other not-so-polite symptoms of menopause. The average age of a woman experiencing menopause is 51, though genetics play a big role, and many women go through it at the same ages their mothers did. To learn more about what to expect and how to cope, or to share your stories and tell others what worked for you, tune in this Friday for a show about menopause. Today's show is an archive edition, so we won't be taking calls this hour.
