Truth be told, you’re not actually menopausal, because it’s your ovaries that are actually menopausal

Blog Post
For years you have thought that one day you would be menopausal. For years, you’ve been saying that you’re menopausal. Your friends, your family, and your doctor say it. But saying that you’re menopausal is a distraction from reality. The word menopause means the moment that your ovaries can no longer produce hormones to keep your body healthy and can no longer produce an egg for reproduction. Menopause comes from two words, meno = month referring to monthly cycles and pause = paused cycles. Together, these two words, menopause, means pause of monthly cycles. Ovaries cycle every month and eventually,... read more →

Living your life with ovarian menopause vs enduring your life in menopause

Blog Post
The distinction between the two is very important. Living with ovarian menopause could save your life and enduring your life in menopause could end your life.i Living your life with ovarian menopause means you understand that your reduced health is due to the loss of your ovarian hormones.

Demand NIH stop unethical research with Premarin – a menopause drug

Petition
Sign this petition to demand the NIH acknowledge past unethical menopausal research using Premarin and commit to future ethical menopausal research using ovarian hormones. As an electrical/bio-medical engineer and a menopausal woman, I trusted the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to design ethical clinical trials for menopausal women. My trust was misplaced because the NIH has not designed ethical clinical trials and has betrayed all menopausal women. What the NIH has done is inexcusable. The NIH deliberately designed clinical trials that would fail. Then, with fabricated data from the failed clinical trials, the NIH published treatment guidelines that said HRT... read more →

Demand the FDA ban the use of equilin in Premarin – a menopause drug

Petition
Sign this petition to ban the use of the FDA unapproved hormone, equilin, in the drug, Premarin. As an electrical/bio-medical engineer and a menopausal woman, I want the FDA to ban equilin, a fetal horse estrogenic hormone that is proven to be devasting to the health and well-being of menopausal women, as a major component in the drug, Premarin (PREH-ma-rin). Premarin is the primary drug that has been used in clinical studies on menopausal women for decades. Premarin contains a large amount of equilin, which means the outcome of these clinical trials were manipulated toward predicable failure. Equilin has never... read more →
