No two women experience the menopause the same way. While for some it is a phase of life with new energy, for others it almost breaks them. And very few people know what actually happens to their body and psyche during this phase. "Puls" shows how women can get through the menopause better and what can be done about classic problems such as hot flashes or weight gain. ????

"Antidepressants didn't help me," she says. For the woman from central Switzerland, the cause of her depression was the sudden drop in estrogen during the menopause. It was only when an experienced gynecologist treated her with hormones instead of antidepressants that she felt better again. They now give lectures together to raise awareness of the possible connection between depression and estrogen deficiency. Menopause in the workplace - a company breaks the silence Menopause symptoms in the workplace can not only be unpleasant - they are also a taboo that people don't like to talk about. The Obwalden-based industrial company Maxon wants to break the silence because a good portion of its 430 female employees are of the corresponding age. How can male managers be made aware of the issue? How can older employees be prevented from missing work? And how can companies deal with the issue in a more relaxed manner? The company gets help from menopause doctor Petra Stute. ????
