People are talking a lot about menopause and its symptoms because of a movie that has gone viral on social media. The video of a woman having a hot flash has hit home with many women who have been through the same thing.
At first, Tracey Monique posted the video on TikTok. It shows her sitting in a football field with steam coming off her head. Some guys didn’t understand what was going on, but a lot of women did and jumped right in to offer their support and encouragement.
Monique said that she looked like she was steaming because she was having a hot flash, which is a typical sign of menopause. While hot flashes are a normal part of menopause, they can be painful and inconvenient for the person having them.
@pleezebfree Hot and Hungry. Hot Flashes are annoying and rude.
The movie has made more people talk about menopause and its symptoms. A lot of women have talked about their own hot flashes, and some have asked for more people to know about and understand the problem.
A few people have said that more guys should watch the video to get a better idea of what hot flashes are like. A user said, “Every man needs to see this, so they don’t think their wives are being dramatic when they say they are having a hot flash.”
Others have said that their partners have had a hard time understanding what hot flashes are or how bad they are. Someone said, “Dude I was seeing when it first started getting bad thought I was exaggerating until he saw my ears turn beetroot red when a hot flash hit.”
Also, women who have had hot flashes feel like they are not alone after seeing the movie. Someone else said, “Going to show my husband.” I’ve had to deal with this for more than three years now. It’s not enjoyable.
The video is a strong reminder of how important it is to teach people about menopause and its signs and make them more aware of them. Women can help get rid of the negative stereotypes about menopause by talking about their own experiences and being there for each other. This will also make the community stronger and more welcoming.
