It’s that time of year again, everyone!  During the entire month of September, the Red Hot Mamas will come together to celebrate Menopause Awareness Month.  It is time to honor our health, reflect on our lives and most importantly, have fun. There are over 477 million* of us worldwide who are going through post-menopause;  so we might as well get together and make the most of this time.  

We hear a lot about sex issues at menopause, but exactly how many people are affected?  The Red Hot Mamas recently teamed up with Duramed Pharmaceuticals and Harris Interactive to conduct an online survey about sex and menopause.  The goal was to assess women’s knowledge of and experience with menopausal symptoms and how they affect their sex lives.  The results were intriguing.
