Hearty greetings to you all. Hope you all are doing great. I will be responding to both prompt questions posed by the #ladiesofhive community.
October is proudly referred to as “pink month” because it is the month for breast cancer awareness globally. This is such an important aspect of a female's health because breast cancer has been a major concern to the female folk for many years and the alarming factor is that there is no known cause as this cancer generates from a ride of abnormal cells that forms a tumor in the breast.
So far, the best preventive method against breadth cancer is early detection even as science is advancing in its treatment options.
Now moving to menopause, this is a natural phenomenon that also affects women as we grow older. Menopause is a stage that is characterized by a decrease in hormonal secretions with the ovaries no longer producing eggs.
This phase in a woman's life is a very delicate phase that comes with a lot of changes that if not properly managed, might lead to a painful and stressful transition.
Menopause is a normal process of ageing. Once this phase is properly handled with enough care and support, every woman can thrive during this phase.
Regular exercising, healthy dieting, taking healthy supplements and also making good lifestyle changes can help to cushion the stress of transitioning to the menopause phase.
Menopause phase is not to be feared but rather, it should be accepted and welcomed as a part of life.
Ageing versus Maturity
A wise man once wrote that “grey hair is the crown of elders” but I believe that only applies when that elder has proven him or herself capable and responsible. Without a doubt, ageing is obligatory physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually but maturing is an individual choice. It is a choice to grow capacity which would enable that individual to handle certain responsibilities of life. Hence, you can find an eighteen years old individual with more sense than a forty year old individual.
It is definitely a choice and one that is quite essential too.
Thank you all for reading.
