The menopause for many women is a daunting time of change, of unexpected health challenges, of rollercoaster emotions and unprecedented shifts in how we feel physically and emotionally. But we emerge wiser than before, and stronger than we know. For many, the years immediately post-menopause bring other seismic changes too - empty nests, re-evaluated careers, losses and gains as individual as we are. The decade that takes us from our early 50s to early 60s is a time for us to take stock, to power ahead, to decide who we are and how we want to live as we face the future.

The years immediately after the menopause are the most important for a woman's health: the actions we take now will shape and define the rest of our lives. Saunders talks to experts about all areas of a woman's life and looks at what's happening in your body post-menopause.
