This was light hearted, and funny, yet full of truth! My husband of 44 years ( we married young-19) could write his own hand out pamphlet..."How I successfully survived the menopause years." Lol. I've often told him, "Please, don't speak, I'm on fire here, just give me five minutes please!" Lol. He's been loving and kind for the most part, I'm very grateful. I love you Dr. Barbie!
You tell your husband that he's a very fortunate man to have you loving him. True appreciation for the really dedicated people in your life is all too uncommon. I love you, too, Cindy.
I just love your videos so much!! I came across them at the perfect time. I was all you said in nr 62 and 63. So last week i was finally able to choose a management option thanks to your good teaching skills. I am now on Premarin 0.625mg for 4 days and i am so grateful. I lost myself exactly as you describe in this video. Only i used Alzam and not wine. Since starting to follow you, I was able to totally ditch the Alzam. Now after 4 days on Premarin i found my happy again!! Thank you from the both of us xxx
This sounds like the perfect scenario for 1950, maybe. I hope most men can iron their own shirts, cook their own dinners, and grocery shop, and that most women are not home sitting on the sofa drinking wine.
You are right Doctor Barby, my husband did not understand anything but I didn't either and the 30 or more doctors I visited. Sadly none of us knew what was going on, and everyone told me it was in my head 🙁. Until one day he did left me alone. Too much misinformation and frustration . Thank you for explaining it all as it is. Hopefully this will be seen as a starting point to change lifes and save marriages in the future.
@@MenopauseTaylor Dr. Barby you are a real blessing to lots and lots of people. That is why so many people say they love you and I do too. I wish more doctors were so dedicated to share what they know to change this world . Thank you so much 😇😍
Thank you, Debbie. I have such fun thinking of ways to help you learn and laugh at the same time. Is it Wednesday? I'm in Houston, where we're all still just stuck in all the muck from Hurricane Harvey. We still can't go out anywhere. There are so many rivers of flood water, that it's impossible to get anywhere. There are rivers of tears, too.
Awww, I'm so sorry..... I did not know you were in Houston now. I have been praying for all the flood victims. Will keep you and your husband in my prayers. I feel so bad for all of you. Hang in there..... 🙏
I just sent my husband this video we're doing ok enjoying our time together he's standing here now with his phone charging and I can't stop laughing wondering how he will react to your lovely prop then he says 'I love your laugh making the situation that much funnier my eyes are watering now thanks for being so funny
Menopause Taylor It's like always...it takes one person to start the trend. Maybe once he gets more involved, he will show other men that it's SUPER COOL to be educated about your wife's Menopause and be the hero who holds her when she's cranky and getting hot sweats etc. Dan was so compassionate while I was going thru those rough patches.
Dan's definitely the man for the job of starting a "Men in Support of Menopause" movement. Just think about how much more sex men would get if they "got it!"
Gorgeous outfit! You look beautiful as usual! My hubby is not average for sure and I would leave a husband for sure if he was selfish like that with me. I am married to the best man in the world and have been for 25 years. I cant even imagine! He is the exact opposite o the men you described and watches all of these videos with me. But you are pretty funny with the blow up doll. Though I am not a doctor I fully agree with you about neurotic women and fertility. With my fibroids I was 45 years old and it happened top be a fertility wing of a hospital and they asked me how old I was and how long I was trying to get pregnant when I told them I was not. They said what a relief a normal woman who is not insane over infertility! I have a crazy neighbor who drove away 2 husbands by age 30 with her baby obsession then she finally had one and he left she just drove him nuts. My hubby is watching the videos with me so he doesn't need to watch the one for men.
Like you, I never wanted to get pregnant. But society has a very hard time accepting that. If you're not infertile or incapable of pregnancy, people think something's wrong with you if you don't want children. Face it: Nothing is for everyone: Not marriage, not kids, nada.
hahahahahaha - that DOLL! lol On a more serious note ... my hubby had no idea I was going through it until I told him the other day what I'd been dealing with for more than a year. I think because it hasn't caused any sort of crazy mood issues that can happen with some women. I've stayed pretty much the same - even keel - in that regard. I feel very fortunate. The hot flashes and sweats are pretty annoying though. 🤪
Wow! I feel like I have started this entire menopause process all over again as I am dealing with a vaginal vault prolapse. This was great! I will be definately have him watch this although he knows a lot about menopause but not sure he truly knows that I feel almost as crazy as when I went I into surgical menopause after my hysterectomy in 2015. Lol.
I have appreciated everything i've learned on your channel. Yet the condescension toward men is too much. I can't put a video like this in front of my husband and expect him to be receptive. I don't know what kind of men these are. It's not mine. Can you please address the men with more respect and more so as the men we want them to be. I believe they would be more receptive if treated with respect and and Inspiration.
I am just so glad to know that these videos are helping you. You'll hear me say the line about making the rest of your life the best of your life a lot.
You're so welcome, Donna. You know, when men find out that I have a DVD for them, every single one of them gives me a blank look and says (and I quote), "I need that!" They're desperate to know what in the world this menopause stuff is all about. But think about it: They can't ask their wives OR their buddies. They're really perplexed.
Alice, did you register for the giveaway in the link or on my website? If not, you can buy the video on my website (MenopauseTaylor.ME). It's really great for guys.
I call it, "Getting out of your own head." Being able to view things from someone else's perspective always makes things better for both of you. I have a DVD entitled "Menopause 101 for Men" at my website. It's a fantastic thing to get your man in order to let ME tell him what's going on with you. I relate it to the things he cares about most (sex & his sex life). And it's funny.
He needs to laugh more he has the most beautiful laaugh I ever heard he's learning to enjoy and tolerate life without substances he's 57 and it's time to grow up thank you
Omg! Me me me I live in a world of 6 men and im the only CRAZY Woman. Well almost the oldest is now engaged and she is lovely;) Anyway I would LOVE to have information geared for all the men in my life ;) Your the best ;) that doll was a huge laugh;)
Daisy, I can assure you that my Menopause 101for Men DVD will really make YOUR life so much better. Men have no idea what's going on. Think about it: Most women have no idea what's going on when it come to their own menopause! Knowledge makes everything so much better. Good luck with the giveaway.
Go to MenopauseTaylor.ME. There, you'll find my "store," with the DVD, a DVD of my menopause seminar, my book, and all sorts of other educational resources.

Partners sometimes won' listen to each other.
Menopause Taylor, wow. Your right. Thanks for all the innovation. Maybe do a video on Nikki Tesla, Irene Newton, Wilma Mozart, the Wright sisters, and Henrietta Ford. Oh, wait, women were so oppressed they could do nothing but clean the kitchen, and got beat for reading. What a load of crap.
