Three cheers for sons!
And a thousand cheers for a cool son who helps his mom, Ellen Dolgen, spread honest and up-to-date information about perimenopause and menopause.
Jack Dolgen produced Ellen’s video, a spoof that tells the truth!
Ellen explains: “I teamed up with well-known comedic writer and talent, Rachel Bloom, along with my wonderful son, songwriter and producer, Jack, to make this hilarious video educating the sisterhood on perimenopause and menopause!”
“Jack helped me find my voice,” Ellen writes. “He co-authored my book, Shmirshky: The Pursuit of Hormone Happiness, and he and Rachel Bloom created this incredible video for me!”
Thanks Jack!
Ellen Dolgen is an outspoken women’s health and wellness advocate, menopause awareness expert, author, and speaker.
After struggling through the silence that surrounds menopause, Ellen resolved to help women reach out and end the confusion, embarrassment, and less-than-lovely symptoms that come with “the change.” Her passion to be a “sister” to all women fueled Ellen’s book, Shmirshky: the pursuit of hormone happiness.
As a result of her women’s wellness journey, and in response to the overwhelming thirst of her ever-expanding audience for empowering information, Ellen’s weekly blog, Menopause MondaysTM was born.
That’s a riot. Such a fun video. Wish the puberty film I watched in my youth had been as fun.

Hilarious! Oh, and very informative too. One comment/question. When I checked it out a few years ago, I understood that you CAN become pregnant even without having a period…????

Patti, if you have not had a period for 12 months, you are in menopause. If you are having sporatic periods, you are still in perimenopause – AND you CAN get preggers!

Oh, it has been almost 5 years, but I did read it somewhere! Wish I knew where so it could be corrected!
