Speaker 1: Welcome to Very Perry. I'm Anal's Todd, I'm a writer
Speaker 1: here at MMA MIA and I am in Perry manifests Well,
Speaker 1: I think I am like It's hard to know, right.
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm a forty two year old single mum,
Speaker 1: constantly wide yet tired. I feel like I'm on my
Speaker 1: last nerve in situations that I used to handle with ease,
Speaker 1: and my period is about as confused as a chameleon
Speaker 1: at a skittles factory. So we're learning this stuff together.
Speaker 1: I will hold your hand if you promise to hold mine.
Speaker 1: So we've brought together twenty five of the world's leading
Speaker 1: experts in women's health to help sort this shit out
Speaker 1: for us and to keep things simple, Yes please. We've
Speaker 1: mapped out seven main sessions, each on different pery symptoms.
Speaker 1: There's this session on what is going on? Help my
Speaker 1: vagina is broken as we look at jenity, rinary syndrome
Speaker 1: and rogue periods, the truth about hormones and HRT, weight
Speaker 1: gaining Perry and what to do about it, managing the
Speaker 1: mental load, a sleep boot camp in Reclaim your Nights,
Speaker 1: Yes Please, and loss of identity and how to find
Speaker 1: the right support. Plus a bonus section on sex and
Speaker 1: skin and hair. I'm looking forward to that one. Each
Speaker 1: session features specialist women's healthcare experts as we ask what

Speaker 2: a GP mainly of midlife women. I'm also an author
Speaker 2: and I mainly see women about perimenopause symptoms. And here
Speaker 2: some women think that they know exactly what Perry is like.
Speaker 2: It's a bit of hot flushes and maybe a few
Speaker 2: mood things, right, that is just maybe five percent of
Speaker 2: the story. Did you know that there are so many
Speaker 2: other symptoms? And before I tell you what they are,
Speaker 2: let me introduce my really good mate Cas. Mahoney, we
Speaker 2: might have had one or two of these.
