Ruth Langsford spoke out on Loose Women last year about a conversation she’d had with her son Jack about the menopause after she "lost [her] rag".
Everyone’s experience of the menopause is unique and all-too-often too little is said about it, meaning it can often feel like there is a misplaced sense of shame surrounding it. Breaking down these barriers and having candid conversations about everything from symptoms to what HRT is are incredibly important and ITV’s Loose Women often delves into these subjects. During the show on 28th October 2024, the panelists discussed contraception, periods and the menopause and educating people about them. Reflecting upon her own experience of menopause, Ruth Langsford described a talk she had once with her now 22-year-old son Jack, after she "lost [her] rag" in an "off the scale" way.
