This is a topic people still do not want to discuss. It happens in both men and women. Why does it have to be unbearable or a midlife crisis? I want longevity out of life so to me this is just another journey I will experience. It does come with some side effects to overcome.
The body is going to start showing some changes as hormones fluctuate. In men and women the 40s is the average when this starts to happen. How can we make this transition smoother so we can enjoy the ride working up to retirement.
You probably notice some changes happening so the question is what are they? These are basic general for both men and women.
Hot flashes happen to men and women
low sex drive
moodiness
weight gain
How do we handle the transition? Lifestyle changes
