Manila, Philippines — Menopause is no longer a taboo subject. Thanks to global stars like Halle Berry, Oprah, and Michelle Obama, women everywhere are talking more openly about perimenopause and menopause. And now, ProAge is bringing that conversation to the Philippines, making it more accessible for every mom who’s navigating these natural life changes.
At its recent forum, “Don’t Pause for Menopause,” ProAge, a skincare and wellness brand focused on empowering women, took a huge step in breaking the silence around menopause. Hosted by TV personality Suzi Entrata-Abrera, the event featured experts and advocates discussing everything from common symptoms to how women can confidently navigate this new chapter of their lives.
Why We Need to Talk About Menopause
Menopause isn’t just about hot flashes. For many women, it brings mood swings, anxiety, sleep disturbances, and skin changes—things that often get ignored or brushed aside. ProAge believes it’s time to bring these issues to the forefront and offer real solutions that work for Filipino women.
Claudine Viquiera, ProAge’s founder and a menopause advocate herself, explains:
“While a lot of brands focus on ‘empowering women,’ many forget that this empowerment should include women going through menopause. This phase has been so stigmatized, but we want to break that silence. Women deserve solutions that really address the unique challenges they face during this time.”
Claudine Viquiera, founder of ProAge and advocate for menopause, talks about her vision, mission, and the products and support group she created for women going through Menopause.
What You Should Know About Menopause
At the event, experts like Dr. Annebelle D. Aherrera, OB-GYN and women’s wellness advocate, busted myths and misconceptions about menopause. They also offered practical tips on how women can take charge of their health during this phase—whether it’s managing symptoms like brain fog or embracing the natural changes in their bodies.
