- And yet it is a natural stage of our lives. We need to start talking about it! Instead of hurtful stereotypes and superstitions, we want knowledge and modern medical care. We believe that taking care of ourselves starts with recognizing what's wrong with us and what can help us," Dominika Kulczyk stresses.

Breaking stereotypes and increasing access to reliable knowledge is served by the Kulczyk Foundation's latest campaign "Menopause without taboos." Its goal is to develop, with the participation of experts, the best standards of support to help women go through the period of change as comfortably as possible. The next steps of the action taken in this regard, as well as rich expert, guidance content, will be presented just on the website menopauzabeztabu.org.pl.
