Has the menopause "become a mess" after going mainstream? Dr Paula Briggs answers your questions

Hello and welcome to this very special episode of The Menopod to mark International Women's Day.

Award-winning hosts Susan Lee and Dawn Collinson are back to chat about every aspect of the menopause - or what they like to call puberty’s evil older sister.

Joining them on this special is Dr Paula Briggs, Chair of the British Menopause Society and a Consultant in Sexual and Reproductive Health. All of which means she knows her onions when it comes to menopause and perimenopause - and answers some of our listener's most pressing questions about this critical stage in a woman’s life.

Sue and Dawn discuss whether there is now almost too much information out there about the menopause? Have we moved from a place where women struggled to find any information to there now being a blizzard of stuff?

Welcome to your FAQs about life for women over-45.
