"You’re not seen as middle aged, you’re seen as old, whereas your comparable male counterpart is seen as in his prime... "Whenever you’re perceived to be middle aged, you’re perceived to have family issues, menopause-related issues, or you’re just difficult to manage.... "As they do grow older and more mature in their careers, [women] lose some of the fear of speaking their mind. And certain men don’t like that." https://www.huffpost.com/entry/age-discrimination-women-goog_l_6a6ba2e0e4b01948ae9a97fd #GenderDiscrimination #WomenOver40 #menopause #misogyny

Here's that yearly thread for our collective tips for people with Dysautonomia, (peri)menopause, chronic illness in heatwaves. Hover or focus to reveal Sensitive
How do you keep yourself alive and safe during the heat while bedbound or bedbound adjacent, or while out in the world with chronic illness? Emphasis on affordability for low incomes and things that can be done with very little energy please. #MEcfs #POTS #Dysautonomia #LongCOVID #ChronicIllness #Menopause #HeatWave

"Santoro and other physicians say that before spending lots of money on products that make big promises, it’s important for women to talk to their doctors about what has actually been proven to help — and what could be harmful. 'It really pays to be very, very, very skeptical,' Santoro said." https://apnews.com/article/menopause-perimenopause-products-marketing-edd33e91895f0bbd1498d9697142a9cb #healthcare #menopause #perimenopause #estrogen #hormones #WomensHealth #marketing #supplements

Across a woman’s life there are three major physiological transitions: puberty, pregnancy/childbirth, and menopause. Medicine tends to treat them as separate stories. Lived experience often doesn’t. This essay explores a single regulatory pattern that reappears across these stages — sometimes as overwhelm, sometimes as crisis, sometimes much later as muscle cramps or autonomic symptoms — not as pathology, but as boundary dynamics under changing conditions. It’s about recognition, not diagnosis. About regulation, not “coping better”. And about why many women sense continuity where systems see fragments. If this resonates — for you, your daughters, or your patients — you’re not imagining the pattern. https://open.substack.com/pub/hybridmind42/p/boundary-transitions-in-female-physiology?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android&r=75c2ac #WomensHealth #Menopause #Perimenopause #Puberty #Pregnancy #BoundaryDynamics #RegulationNotPathology #ListenToWomen #HealthLiteracy
