@floforperimenopause: Chapter 1: Ancient Greece and perimenopause In Ancient Greece, it's believed that perimenopause symptoms were relieved with wine, beetle potions and sitting over pots of warming herbs and cow dung... 😳 In our new series with cultural historian Elinor Cleghorn, we go back to Ancient Greece to take a what women in perimenopause might have experienced - a time when the Wandering Womb theory claimed that a drying uterus would travel through a woman's body in search of moisture. Centuries later, women are still being told they can't be trusted about their own bodies. Flo exists to change that 💜 Next up: the Medieval era 👀 #MakeDismissalHistory #Perimenopause #FloApp #Menopause #MenopauseSupport
