'My menopause symptoms were so bad that I thought I had dementia'

A women's health advocate has spoken about the toll of menopausal brain fog ahead of a Dublin based event for women experiencing the transition.

Sinead McNamara is the co-director of the National Menopause Summit, which is being held in Dublin's Mansion House on March 23. The informative event will feature a range of health professionals and advocates, who will advise women on navigating menopause in their personal and professional lives.

Sinead, now aged 54, first experienced menopausal symptoms at the beginning of lockdown. She had not been aware of how challenging brain fog could be prior to undergoing menopause.
