New reveal of Mrs. Funnybones: Akshay Kumar’s wife and famous writer Twinkle Khanna is known for her outspokenness. Be it leaving films or any social issue, she never talks in private. This time she has spoken openly on a topic on which women often maintain silence – and that is Menopause,
We often hear that women’s bodies undergo major changes between the ages of 45-55. Periods start stopping and hormones go up and down. Twinkle has recently described this pain in one of her columns, which she named in a very funny way. ‘Dard-e-Disco and the new Menopause Remix’ Is kept.
“I wake up at 3 in the night and count the stars.”
Twinkle writes that she thought the age of 50 meant freedom. Children will grow up, responsibilities will reduce and life will settle down. But the reality turned out to be something else.
Sharing her experience, she says, “It seems like my hormones have responded. Often at 3 in the night, I open my eyes, lie down in the dark and just look out the window at the stars. Sometimes I feel very tired, and sometimes suddenly I start feeling strange restlessness and heat (Hot Flashes) in the body.”
While talking with Kajol in his show, he admitted that this period is really very difficult for women.
Bone pain and jealousy from men
Twinkle told that menopause is not just mood swings, but it also breaks physically. He has started having pain in his bones, sweating at night and his skin has started thinning. During this he said a very human thing – he is jealous of men!
She says, “To be honest, I envy men. They don’t have to go through hormonal fluctuations or menopause. Their lives are so much easier.”
Lifted weights after 20 years, changed lifestyle
But Twinkle is not one to accept defeat. To deal with this problem, he has made major changes in his lifestyle.
- Weightlifting: After 20 years, Twinkle has started lifting weights in the gym again. She now does squats, lunges and pelvic floor exercises to maintain strength in the body.
- Home Remedies and Supplements: Apart from medicines, she is relying on natural things. She is taking Ashwagandha, Brahmi, Magnesium and ‘Lion’s Mane’ (a type of mushroom supplement).
- Change in eating habits: She is maintaining simplicity in eating and often eats toasted sandwiches. But, happiness is also important – that’s why she never forgets to have ice cream with her daughter Nitara every two weeks.
These words of Twinkle give courage to millions of women who are silently going through this phase and think that this problem is happening only to them.
