Expanding the Conversation Around Menopause

More than one billion women worldwide are navigating menopause, yet many receive limited information about its effects on desire, intimacy, body confidence, and personal identity. Questions about painful sex, vaginal dryness, changing libido, and pelvic floor health can remain difficult to discuss, leaving women feeling isolated or misunderstood.
"Sexy Menopause" addresses these concerns in clear and accessible language. The book examines why desire may change during midlife, how hormonal transitions can affect sexual wellbeing, and why emotional safety plays an important role in pleasure and intimacy.

Lisa also explores how women can approach a changing body with greater understanding and self-trust. The book encourages informed conversations about pelvic health, personal boundaries, relationships, arousal, and the many ways desire can evolve throughout life.
“Women deserve to feel sacred and undeniably sexy,” said Lisa, author of Sexy Menopause and founder of Womankind Pelvic Care Physiotherapy.

Clinical Knowledge Informed by Lived Experience

The book draws on Lisa’s more than three decades of experience as a physiotherapist and pelvic and sexual health educator. Throughout her career, she has supported thousands of women experiencing pelvic floor concerns, painful sex, prolapse, incontinence, birth recovery, and menopausal changes.

Her professional understanding is accompanied by a personal account of menopause, heartbreak, healing, and transformation. While navigating her own hormonal transition, Lisa experienced the unexpected end of a long-term relationship. That period prompted deeper reflection on ageing, love, identity, security, and self-worth.
These experiences shaped her view of menopause as a significant life threshold. In Sexy Menopause, she examines how this stage can invite women to reconsider inherited beliefs, communicate their needs, strengthen healthy boundaries, and reconnect with their authentic voice.

Supporting Women and Their Partners

Alongside information for women, Sexy Menopause considers what partners may need to understand about physical discomfort, emotional connection, and changing sexual needs. This perspective supports more thoughtful conversations within relationships and may help couples approach midlife intimacy with greater patience and awareness.

Readers will also find guidance on body confidence, pleasure, arousal, pelvic floor function, and the emotional dimensions of sexual wellbeing. The book is intended for women seeking reliable information and for partners who want to better understand the menopausal experience. Here is a recent article published about the book.
