Menopause Cafe, Troon, Scotland

It’s World Menopause Day - do something fabulous!! For me, my sparkly red boots, red coat, red cardie, red lippy and ‘we can do it’ jumpsuit are out and on display.

Peri and Meno can be tough but revel in the fabulousness of getting older too!!! Do you and if you’re not sure who that is, remember to not give too many f@@.

Have a wonderful day, everyday, and remember to come to our Menopause Cafe Troon next Thursday night if you’re local - see the previous post.

Menopause Cafe Troon October + *Special Guest*

October is Menopause month and we are super excited to announce the next date of Menopause Cafe Troon as Thursday 26th October at the fabulous Blueberrys coffee shop.

We have a **special guest** Pelvic Health Physiotherapist Ali Anderson coming to talk to us prior to the normal meno cafe discussions. Ali will be there at 6.30pm to have a ‘Quick look at the bladder, pelvic floor, and more’, then the menocafe discussions will be 7-8pm.

Ali is taking time out of her world to come and chat to us which we’re very grateful for and as always the Menopause Cafe is free for you to attend, but please do book a ticket through Eventbrite as we are limited by numbers.

All we ask is that if you are able, please support Bluberrys Coffee Shop who stay open just for us, by buying a cuppa, cake, whatever takes your fancy.

We can’t wait to see you all but please 🙏 if you book a ticket and can’t then make it, please let us know so someone else can come along. We think this is going to be a popular night.

Interesting correlation between post menopausal killer whales (yes they go through menopause too) and keeping their lads out of trouble. I would have to include my girl as well as my boy though 😂.

Males show fewer tooth-rake marks when mothers are present and have stopped breeding, research shows

Some of the lesser thought of symptoms of peri and menopause from Menopauae Matters. How many can you tick ?😂

Maybe we need to create a positive one too like ‘give less f…s what I wear’ or ‘feeling the urge to climb hills’

What would your positive ones be?

What an amazing, gorgeous group of ladies who joined us last week for our 2nd Troon Menopause Cafe at Blueberry’s Coffee Shop.

We received fabulous feedback again mentioning the sharing of stories and coping mechanisms, making new connections and being in a place with freedom to talk. This is such a huge part of the support we can give each other and reduce ‘feeling less alone’, as put by one of the attendees.

Talking about menopause isn’t all doom and gloom with plenty of giggles and laughs throughout the night and a mention from one lovely lady that although she came to support her friend, she actually really enjoyed it and found it useful for herself. There was also mention of a trip to the Rage Room in Glasgow 😂 - been there, done that and would heartily do it again!!! Road trip 🤔???? 😂

Our next cafe is 27th July, 6.30-8pm at Blueberry’s so if you’d like to come along please secure your FREE place through eventbrite

Fantastic new guide available for download by the Menopause Support team.

Here is yet another way to tell people about the new Menopause Support information booklet and help them find it online.

Huge thanks to my lovely friend Rachael for putting this fab poster together. This is grassroots community in action.

You can now print the poster to put up anywhere that will let you and you can also share the pdf with everyone you know.

You can find the poster at menopausesupport.co.uk in the booklet info in the resources section.

We WILL be the generation to
