How humour can get you taken seriously. If we’re to make any progress on driving awareness of menopause, we need men to want to be a part of it. The physical and biological responses to humour can trigger people of all genders and ages to not just listen, but remember.

Women don't love watching sport because TayTay bagged a tight end. We love it because it's fucking brilliant. The future of sport is female. Catch up everyone. Happy #IWD2024

Menopause is an issue for everyone, not just those going through. I've only coped [just about managed to anyway] because of brilliant colleagues. I chatted to @NABS_UK about the up, downs and importance of support and empathy.

As we come to the end of a week where menopause has been high on the agenda, are ‘women of a certain age’ fully represented? I’m not so sure.

Getting a pic (albeit tiny) in the Mail yet again is getting embarrassing 😂. I suppose I must step aside for the REALLY BIG news that the fabulous @_NaomiWatts_ is going to chair @menomandate in the US 💪

Celebrating the group's first birthday in the Houses of Parliament today, chair Mariella Frostrup said members are 'thrilled' to be joined by actress Naomi Watts, who will chair its US division.

Wonderful piece from an extraordinarily brave colleague who was put into temporary menopause last year. We need more diverse voices to help people understand that menopause is not just a batty old women problem, but a very real issue that genuinely affects how we operate and cope

I've always been a big fan of the podcast The Shift by @SamBaker but if you are a parent of a non-binary or transgender child (and even if you're not), then this is just a great (if at times shocking re some US state laws) listen with Carolyn Hays

I'm perhaps slightly less apoplectic than I was when the government rejected most of the Menopause in the Workplace recommendations, but still pretty furious. Thanks @Campaignmag for keeping this issue in the spotlight

The Prescription Prepayment Certificate will cost £18.70 and last for a year. We are still waiting on details as to specifics and exactly how it will work. But this is a HUGE triumph and the result of years of fighting. A big thank you! YOU made this happen. 💪💗👏
