Brooke Burke Breaks Silence on Menopause: 'I Knew Something Wasn’t Right'
Brooke Burke is speaking out about her experience with menopause, highlighting the need for greater awareness and understanding of the condition. The TV host and wellness expert initially found the symptoms, including brain fog, fatigue, and disrupted sleep, to be overwhelming and difficult to ignore.
A new survey of over 1,000 US women has shed light on the widespread nature of the issue, with many women struggling to cope with symptoms at work. Burke is backing a new Menopause Time Off initiative, which aims to support women in the workplace. She believes that the biggest challenge is not just the symptoms, but the silence and stigma surrounding menopause.

The push to rethink how menopause is handled at work is gaining momentum, with advocates calling for more flexibility, better policies, and open conversations. Burke emphasizes the importance of listening to one's body and seeking support when needed. By prioritizing education and awareness, women can better navigate the challenges of menopause and take control of their health.
