Naomi Watts is "on top of it" when it comes to managing menopause, she told us in an exclusive interview, having released her own book on the subject (Dare I Say It: Everything I Wish I'd Known About Menopause) and appeared alongside Oprah in a menopause special, along with doing years of her own research. But it hasn't always been this way, and she's still "surprised" by elements of the experience.
"At the beginning, it felt very scary and very lonely," she says. "There were so many things I didn't know within this menopause and perimenopause journey. I thought it was just about hot flashes, as far as I understood from movies or TV shows."
