@tracienatural2405 Thank you so much. I appreciate the encouragement. Unfortunately, once I tell women experiencing similar symptoms to eat healthy, I lose their interest. I think they'd rather a doctor prescribe them a pill.
@@kellio8087 I believe you. The same thing happens to me. Using natural remedies, a healthy diet, exercise and stress management is far superior than pharmaceuticals.

Thank you Halle because people that aren’t going through it.. do not understand it. I’m 53 and had my last child when I was 34 and have been going through the change since then. No fun 🙁
I’m glad this issue is being pushed to the forefront. I’m 56 and in relatively good health, exercise, eat decent mostly, not on any medications and couldn’t understand why my cholesterol numbers were so high and diag w Fatty Liver..what?!!! I started researching about menopause and drop in estrogen def wrecks all kinds of havoc in our bodies! Thank you Halle & Cory for using your platforms 🙏🏾 your efforts continue to get noticed and passed!
Love longer conversations! My wife is on full hormonal replacement therapy and while it ain't perfect (and not always fun), it does keep her alive and functioning. Menopause is fast approaching for her and is something that I could definitely use more information on. (It's only a "women's issue" if you're single!)
Mental Health , physical stress, and eating disorder went rock bottom when Menopause came. I cant wait for this Research for Menopause etc. Thank Thank You Halle Berry 🎉🎉🎉.
Any negative thing about menopause is stemming from a male or man perspective. Women don’t see themselves as old and disregarded because their body is changing. Men put it down because women’s body changes and the man can’t get his way sexually or maid service to his benefit. Meno isn’t new. It’s centuries old and we’re talking about it like it just happened in the last few yrs. It’s disgusting.
Always admired Halle for her outspokenness & fiery, passionate nature!❤ Halle, of course is a fiery Great Leo Empress & always lived life on her own terms!!❤ Love her!
Very brave for Halle Berry to speak up about menopause and making the society realise it’s a natural process all women go through and nothing to be ashamed of
For me, perimenapause and menopause is so different.I started peri at 45 n had hot flashes but they weren't that bad n some anxiety.However when I turned 50,which I am now,my issues are severe hot flashes, anxiety, depression, headaches, insomnia,pelvic pain,back pain,and the newest thing that just started a week ago is my hands and feet are swelling up.I have a gyno appointment,but they cant get me in till beginning of July.Researching alot n going to see about HRT.I am also exercising, drinking alot of water,and completely changing my diet.Praying all you ladies go through this easily and get good information.All my love 💕💕💕🙏😘
You need good supplements. Water isn't going to cut it and neither will excercise. I'd recommend Pilates and some weight training and lots of walking. Bio identical hormones as well. That a deficiency in your body. And the symtoms occur in many different forms.
Hi Halle, Hi Cory, thank you million times for this wonderful and very important work. What I can do to help, this is extremely important for me, please don’t stop. Blessings ❤
I sure hope that some of that money goes directly to women suffering in pain and torturously tired. I am 60 and work full-time. I absolutely need FMLA so i can have time off work. I need money to get massages and rest from work. Maybe some acupressure or accupuncture. Yes self help not big pharma to get all that allocated money. Yes women take many supplements and change bad food habits. Money for self help. Just found out it is too late to start HRT. I was scared to try it earlier. We need doctors to have menopause knowledge and not just be pill pushers about it. Thank you for getting the information out there. And to start early . Make sure women know about perimenopause. And what to do. I told a co worker about this video and told her my mistake. And told her to start early.
id like more information to talk about womens quality of life as they age. weve had older women who come in w collapsed uterus dealing with it and hiding it. also heart disease precipitates for older women. there needs to be more about health and exercise and weightlifting. so that we dont keep having so many women injure their hips back knees and have stress fractures. thanks! i dont know that the government cares. but im so grateful for you!
Many women do, yes. It affects the urogenital system. The symptoms vary, unique to every woman. It can be hot flashes, cold flashes, palpitations, general temperature being higher, dry eyes, dry mouth, dry vagina and vulva, dry skin in general, hair loss, hair thinning, poor digestion or constipation, mood swings, irritability, feeling down, loss of libido or loss of feeling when touched, fatigue that makes one feel run down even if sleeping, sleep badly, painful joints, weight gain mainly around the abdomen, feeling the need to pee more often, sensitive bladder, high cholesterol, and more. Ayurveda has very good knowledge to learn from to about menopause.
Progestin.. synthetic progesterone is to be avoided. You can get bio identicals. You need to be on good supplements and a good diet as well. It all depends on the woman.. overall the Estradiol protects but a few women can get cancers from the estradiol = HRT. Not the BHRT. This is usually over a long period of time.
Halle is not giving accurate information. Women spend most of their time in childbearing ages 15-50 and for some the age of 55. Some women don't experience perimenopause and only have maybe a decade of menopause. Much shorter than the reproductive age. Plus their is alot of research on menopause and doctors who specialize in women's health and women's mental health. Halle has access to those doctors. She doesn't have the type of diabetes that kills most women, black women, or black people. And she cured her diabetes with eastern medicine. So she is too privileged to speak to women health issues. Cory get you a woman who was working class to speak to this situation. The only thing I agree with is the hormone replacement therapy. It is free for LGBTQ but not for women who have health issues which it is needed. But Booker and other woke politicians are to blame for that one.
Sing it, Cory and Halle! Let the Senate know that I have paid Federal Taxes since 1966, and see very little of it go to studies and programs which benefit women.
I was given antidepressants and sleep medicine when I was in premenopausal. It is crazy that general practitioners doesn’t dive down to the root cause as to why those symptoms occurred! I had to quit my profession because of misdiagnosis! Thank you! Now that I opted to be on HRT, insurance won’t cover it!
Thank you Halle! I am 56 and really appreciate the attention you are bringing to this issue. Just because we may not be a 20 something plum doesn't mean we dry up and become prunes!!!❤
Menopause does not “come to an end”! I love that this conversation is happening but, little misconceptions like this are not helpful. When you enter menopause it is until you die. The symptoms may change overtime but, it is never going to resolve on its own.
Its essentially a hormone deficiency and your body needs those valuable hormones to function well. I know this and I'm not even there yet. The whole reproductive system in women is complex and tough to deal with.
The symptoms can be so debilitating that it affects careers, relationships…life. So many women get misdiagnosed and then improperly medicated. That affects every woman’s quality and quantity of life.
All the major universities have information on menopause. Harvard, John Hopkins etc...maybe she means that doctors aren't utilizing the data effectively to help their female patients.
Thank you, Senator Cory Booker and Halle Berry!! Please run for president again, Cory! 🙏 Blessings to you both for addressing this from a legislative standpoint. I have been suffering from menopausal symptoms for 10 years now and suffered from perimenopause for 10 years prior. It is absolutely debilitating! Thank you again! 😊 💖🙏
Perimenopause is serious & the different symptoms that comes with it can be stressful. I challenge you women take it one day at a time, don't stress out, pay close attention to your body, make as many lifesyle changes as you possibly can (sugars, carbs, do a little strength training, jot things down in your calender for remi ders). Not saying this will help you totally because different remedies for different body chemistries. It will help with your mental & physical state of wellness. Doctors aren't specialized in menopause. No shot to them, but I found out the hard way. They kept sending me away. I did my research and continuing to study my body. I am on my journey to wellness & loving it. Also, please have heart to heart conversation with your soul mate. Remember: menopause is one day, Perimenopause is years and post menopause is a lifetime ❤️ Thanks Halle for advocating for us. Love ya girl! God speed!!
As I embark on my menopausal journey I realize if I would have eaten greens as a child and had a better understanding of good healthy food as opposed to quick unhealthy fast food I believe my journey would have been easier. Since experiencing so much Pain I began to look to other cultures with alternative health lifestyles that have impacted me in such a positive and wholesome way.
In thier research I hope they look into adrenal/ HPA axis issues. Many women end up with bad menopause transitions due to chronic go go go, toxins, various stressors, etc. It makes us sick before we even start menopause. Technically the adrenals are suppose to get us into that phase of life safely. So a lot of us are chronically stressed, toxic or traumatized and sick before our bodies switch over. Peri menopause isn’t the cause. It’s just the trigger puller for what was already loaded in the chamber. This is why we see many chronic diseases and cancers rear up at this phase of life for women. When the adrenals are stressed they cannot do what the ovaries are not doing anymore. HRT isn’t the answer with these underlying issues. The studies need to go into Gut, liver, adrenals, thyroid, etc.. The DUTCH test is a good way to see how your body is metabolizing hormones. This needs to get better for us women. Finding out the root causes. We need to teach young girls and teens this. This is no joke and life changing. I thought I was in good shape and then I turned 40 and all it’s like my body changed so drastically. Like it was working against itself.
I was in peak health and the exact feedback Halle received was my experience and I refused to believe the test results, switched doctors and their test results were completely opposite. However, this one is zero help beyond a pap smear and ordering a lab test, they absolutely refuse to test and monitor my hormone levels. I am having an extremely difficult time locating a new doctor and am strongly considering going with a naturopathic doctor and pay for my treatment and lab/hormone testing 100% out of pocket, even though I have to pay for medical insurance every month. It's absurd. The doctors have created stress, when I wasn't even stressed about anything. I deeply appreciate this conversation and am figuring out exactly who and how to contact, as Halle is suggesting to request/demand progress.
It about damn time. It’s great to know that president Biden has allocated 12 billion dollars for women’s health research and studies. The more women like Halley are out there bringing attention to this the better.
It just seems like lately, its being said that all thru a women's life they should be on hormones ? Hormones for birth control, hormones for Peri menopause, and hormones for menopause. What's going on here ?
You don't take hormones for birth control that's on the individual lots of other forms. And they shut some of the natural hormones down. I don't consider the pill hormones. Yes there is the newer HRT and then bio identical or body identicals. It's the environment we live in its effecting our health overall.
Psychiatrists should also be educated in this.
That part!
Women in the work place suffering from the symptoms of menopause need job protections.
Thank you Halle Berry, finally someone talking about perimenpause and menpause. Hopefully, a bill is passed so we women can move forward and beyond.
My menopause lead to autoimmune disease because of hormonal imbalances and work stress. Regular medical doctors couldnt help and just prescribed anti-depressants. It took me doing tons of research of functional doctors for me to save myself. I eliminated stress, ate healthy and supplemented. That is what saved my life!
Congratulations!! Keep up the amazing work and help as many women as you can ❤❤
@tracienatural2405 Thank you so much. I appreciate the encouragement. Unfortunately, once I tell women experiencing similar symptoms to eat healthy, I lose their interest. I think they'd rather a doctor prescribe them a pill.
Me too!

Hrt is great but my life didn’t become fantastic until I started testosterone.

I’m in perimenopause and I’m miserable. I’m 44 and it sucks. Digestion is off, back pains, emotions are awful. No fun.

Yes!!!
She is so right,
there is really no medical
understanding about it talking with one's doctors, thanks.
Thanks!!!💐💐💐💐💐💫
I totally agree. No one is talking about it. We need more help concerning this and I’m so glad you are pushing it.
All women should see a Functional Doctor before premenopause begins.
Thank you, Halle Berry. Times are changing for the better.
So happy shes takking about it. Thank you Halle Berry!!!!!❤❤❤ We need more people like you !!!
Thank you!
Hi Halle, Hi Cory, thank you million times for this wonderful and very important work. What I can do to help, this is extremely important for me, please don’t stop. Blessings ❤

Thank you,Hallie! This is very important.

Dr Mary Claire Haver is the woman to do the job.
There are specific mixing of hormones that a woman can take according to their journey
Great Work!!!!
I want to say a big thanks to halle berry for talking about this issue.❤
I have lupus and the medicine put me and early menopause in my late 30's , if I knew it was going to happen I would of ask for a different treatment
Thank you Halle for speaking up. I try to speak up. They won't listen...menopause is no joke
Try having both PMDD and perimenopause at the same time. No picnic as it’s a shitstorm.
Estrogen gel is damn expensive
We need to talk about it. I talk to everyone, men, women, young adults, everyone!
Greeeaat job Halle!!!
Good job Cory Booker!!!
My grandmother tried the same thing with my aunts t1D and she passed away in a diabetic coma . it’s not for e everyone
Insurance tends not to pay for certain hormone therapy like pellet therapy.
I sure hope that some of that money goes directly to women suffering in pain and torturously tired. I am 60 and work full-time. I absolutely need FMLA so i can have time off work.

IM DYING TO KNOW. IS ANYONE IN PERIMENOPAUSE SUFFERING FROM BLADDER/PELVIC ISSUES??
PLEASE. I NEED TO KNOW
Many women do, yes. It affects the urogenital system. The symptoms vary, unique to every woman. It can be hot flashes, cold flashes, palpitations, general temperature being higher, dry eyes, dry mouth, dry vagina and vulva, dry skin in general, hair loss, hair thinning, poor digestion or constipation, mood swings, irritability, feeling down, loss of libido or loss of feeling when touched, fatigue that makes one feel run down even if sleeping, sleep badly, painful joints, weight gain mainly around the abdomen, feeling the need to pee more often, sensitive bladder, high cholesterol, and more. Ayurveda has very good knowledge to learn from to about menopause.
Does hormones cause cancer?
No! The WHI was a flawed study that used fake hormones on already old women who were sick! HRT and TRT can actually protect you from all cancers.
Progestin.. synthetic progesterone is to be avoided. You can get bio identicals. You need to be on good supplements and a good diet as well. It all depends on the woman.. overall the Estradiol protects but a few women can get cancers from the estradiol = HRT. Not the BHRT. This is usually over a long period of time.
3 decades of premenopause and menopause?
I was kicked out into the streets and abandoned by my family with the stigma.
She has super tight skin at 57 bcz She has been on carnivore over 30 years. ❤
66, yep. Same here. 5 years Carnivore.
@@grettahaberman3355 I will wait for my 5 year then. How old are you? I am 51
She follows a ketogenic diet, not carnivore. Both are great for metabolic health.

Halle Berry is mixed. She has two different heritages. So that is at play as well and a lot of resources to use with her money and contacts.
Don't get me started on the rainbow cult... insidious agenda is afoot there.
Being crazy and not knowing you crazy is menopause too.
Menopause is not only hot flashes
Thank you!
