Age Group:

Program Description

Event Details

Is this a hot flash?  What is happening with my body? Am I going crazy? Is this perimenopause? Can I still get pregnant?” These are common questions that often keep us up at night. Do you ever feel like your body is writing a plot twist you didn’t see coming? Just like every great book, no two stories are the same—our bodies and experiences are as diverse as the characters in a novel. Facilitated by a Health Educator from Planned Parenthood, we’ll explore perimenopause and menopause, uncover the challenges that might appear in these chapters, and share practical tools to help you not just survive—but thrive as you write your next chapter with confidence. All are welcome!
