The Power Pause by menoPowered

Welcome to The Power Pause—a space where perimenopause and menopause are powerful transitions to embrace.

Created by the naturopathic doctors behind menoPowered, this blog is your go-to source for real talk, trusted education, and empowering insights on perimenopause, menopause, and life beyond.

We’re three naturopathic doctors and certified menopause practitioners (MSCP). We are also women who’ve been through the ups, downs, and WTF moments of hormonal rollercoasters ourselves.

Here, we dive into the science, debunk the myths, and offer practical tools to help you feel informed, supported, and strong. Because in the pause, there’s power—and you deserve to feel it.

Let’s change the conversation. Let’s thrive. Let’s take the pause… and own it.
