Do you really know?: Is menopause still a taboo subject?
Update: 2024-12-29
Description
The menopause is the period in a woman’s life when she stops ovulating and having periods, due to lower hormone levels in the body. Despite the fact that it can last 10 years or more and all women go through it, the topic has long been something of a taboo and even seen as an illness.
Western medicine only really started paying attention to it in the 18th century. Medical journals and psychiatric studies were largely responsible for the stigmatisation of the menopause. They perpetuated the myth of women being unstable when they were about to go through the menopause.
