Page for collecting info about Hacking Menopause

Workshop Proposal

I have noticed that more & more of my fellow "women in tech" are aging into the life-phase known as "menopause". 
In this workshop, I want to have a group discussion to explore challenges & joys of menopause. I'd like us to share tips&tricks, and collectively generate knowledge, that will be primarily useful to us - but might result in some resources to publish, too.   
Although my personal experience is as a cis-woman, I would specifically like to invite trans-gender-hackers to share the experiences of  DIY hormonal therapies. 
I do not want to "teach" : my role is to be a workshop facilitator & to make it possible to pluck the berries of our collective creativity.
