Best Online Menopause Communities

Sing it with me now: 🎵 We’re all in this together 🎵. Why suffer alone when you can suffer with friends? I mean, there are millions of people going through menopause every second of the day. Instead of burying your head in a bowl of ice cream (and if you do, then I won’t judge), hop on your computer or phone and check out some of these awesome menopause communities. Heck, even meet up in person to fan each other. These communities are here to answer questions, normalize what you’re going through, kick the taboo to the curb, allow you to vent, make friends (or simply lurk in the internet shadows and check out what others are sharing), and help you overcome menopause. I don’t know about you, but sign me up! Also, while you’re at it, be sure to join our free and private Facebook group.

Menopause Support & Straight-Talk

  • URL: https://www.facebook.com/groups/ourkindra/
  • Description: Can we talk? Kindra has decided it’s time to normalize menopause. Let’s chat about things we seldom discuss; things we speak of behind closed doors or in hushed tones. Vaginal Dryness. Hot flashes. Loss of libido. Brain fog. Symptoms of menopause that sometimes leave us feeling like aliens have invaded our bodies. Drained? Crazy? Frustrated? Let’s support each other through the emotional ups and downs because there’s no reason to go through the unpleasantries of menopause alone. We can laugh together at our newfound imperfections and remind each other to love ourselves through it all.

Menopause Support Group

  • URL: https://www.facebook.com/groups/439232282854798
  • Every woman will go through menopause, but everyone’s experience is different. This group is designed to be a safe place for women only … no transgenders and no men …. to share their experiences and voice their concerns.Menopause is the time when a woman’s monthly periods stop. It happens because as women age they slowly run out of eggs. The average age women go through the menopause is 52, but a woman could start to experience menopausal symptoms as early as 30. This group is a non medical group. It is a loving support group for women to discuss their symptoms, stories and woes about going through menopause and for us all to kindly share experiences and support one another. There is no product selling allowed in the group. If you try to sell or promote a product, you will be blocked. This is a support group and my commitment is to uphold the integrity of this group as a safe space where women can freely share without feeling like they are being prospected for sales in any way.

Vaginal Atrophy

  • URL: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1505719029448248/
  • Description: VA is not often spoken about, many women know very little about the effect hormones or lack of them can have on our genital health, yet as many as 49% will experience VA post menopause and that percentage increases with age. The symptoms can be very debilitating, and are often misdiagnosed as other vulval disorders that display similar symptoms. This group has been set up as a resource group-to share as much information on VA as possible, and a place where we can discuss our symptoms and support each other. There will be articles, research literature and a wide range of treatment information-from medical to complementary methods including nutrition and physiotherapy. There are however certain treatments that we may need to be careful about, please back up any suggestions with literature to assure safety if making suggestions, we will be careful not to suggest treatments that could be risky, and most of our suggestions are based on a combination of research and consultations with professionals in this field.
