2.1 million* American women will enter menopause this year.
Over one billion will be in the throes worldwide by 2025. Yet debilitating symptoms are left untreated, and women are routinely ignored and sometimes shamed when they seek help.
Menopause has ramifications beyond just an individual woman’s well-being. The far-ranging impact of women enduring untreated menopause includes billions of dollars in lost wages, upended careers, family disruptions, and emotional chaos. This groundbreaking documentary reminds us that we all have rights as women and humans.
