Takeaways Menopause is a natural physiological event that affects women, including trans and non-binary individuals, and it is important to remember and include all demographics in discussions about menopause. Hormonal changes during menopause can have a significant impact on the body, including joint pain, muscle and tendon issues, sleep problems, anxiety, and pelvic floor health. There is a lack of education and awareness about menopause among healthcare professionals and movement educators, and it is crucial to provide support and resources for women going through this phase of life. Menopause is not a one-time event but an ongoing change in hormonal composition, and it is important to address health and well-being through exercise, nutrition, sleep, and stress management. There are common misconceptions about menopause, such as the belief that women simply have to 'get through it' or that menopause is a disease. It is important to challenge these misconceptions and provide accurate information and support. And a lot More! The conversation highlights the importance of supporting women during menopause and the need for more education and awareness in the Pilates industry.
