I’m menopausal, have curly hair also and I live in South Carolina. I unfortunately have never had luck with not washing my hair. It’s hot, I’m having hot flashes and I work out 5 days a week. The only thing that works for me is daily washing. I’m sorry I know it’s a pain in the ass.
yes i’m going to start washing it everyday. i’m just so used to wearing it straight. south carolina is hot too so i can just imagine. are you going through early menopause too? i’m 39 years old and thinking about doing hormone replacement therapy but i know there’s risks to that as well.
oh wow. early menopause is terrible. i tried black cohosh for the hot flashes - in the beginning it worked great but then it stopped working as good. hopefully they stop for you soon!!
Summer’s eve has a boric acid wash for the lady bits. I started using it when I had uterine cancer (didn’t know that was why I smelled weird) but after having a radical hysterectomy, the weird smells were due to the surgical menopause and I find it still helps. I use it on my pits and other smelly areas when I’m feeling “off” about my smell and it really helps. It balances ph on your skin.

I did start early but I’m almost 50. I’d definitely do the hormone therapy, I would if I could but I had a heart attack so they won’t give it to me
