The (M) Factor: Shredding the Silence on Menopause

The M Factor is a film shredding the last taboo and shame cycle for women in menopause.

Menopause remains one of the last taboos in our permissive, talk-about-everything pop culture. Even though every woman will go through some form of this chemical “reordering,” menopause is still regarded as a condition or a disease. Most people understand it as just another “normal” phase in a woman’s life, a phase that is essentially dismissed as a mere bookend in a women’s evolution from puberty through the end of her reproductive years.

As a result, this transition has been inadequately examined. Instead, menopause has remained largely in the shadows, whispered in horror stories and overplayed in tasteless punchlines.

Women are fed up. It’s time to stand up and be heard! It’s time to create a society in which all women feel prepared for and supported in their journeys to and through menopause
