I Am Mr Menopause

I Am Mr Menopause Helping Women to Truly Thrive Through Menopause, Not Just Survive It Tafiq Akhir. Menopause. For over 20 years, I've specialized in women's health.

Certified and award winning menopause and healthy aging strategist, educator, host, and best selling author known as Mr. I know what you might be thinking; why is a man teaching about menopause? During that time I witnessed the hormone, health and weight management struggles my clients faced as they entered midlife, instantly reminding me of my own mother’s challenging menopause and health journey. Determined to change the narrative, I got specialized training in menopause health management and hormone health, establishing Mr. Menopause® as the compassionate, knowledgeable, and reliable resource my mom never had. Today, I’m honored to be recognized for my contributions to menopause and healthy aging, including being named Menopause Specialist of the Year 2024, and inducted into Marquis' Who's Who In America 2025.

Ever left a doctor's appointment feeling dismissed? You shared your symptoms, only to hear 'That's just aging' or get a useless referral. Most doctors aren't trained to spot this, but you *can* control how you approach that room, what information you bring, and what you say.

Don't just tell your doctor you're 'feeling off.' Bring data. Tracking hot flashes, sleep disruptions, and mood patterns can shift the conversation from vague feelings to specific diagnoses. Naming your concerns, like perimenopause, also guides your doctor. Empower your healthcare.

I’m excited to be joining the Fierce Aunties for an important conversation about menopause, sexual health, and aging.

Menopause can affect far more than periods and hot flashes. It can influence desire, comfort, confidence, relationships, sleep, mood, and how someone feels in their own body. Yet too many women are left without clear information or a space to ask honest questions.

Join us as we connect the dots and talk openly about what women need to know and what support can look like.

Los Angeles | Monday, September 21 | 6 to 8pm

RSVP today at: www.BWWLA.org

Join the Fierce Aunties on Monday, September 21st from 6 to 8 pm for Real Talk on Menopause, Sexual Health & Aging 🍑✨Venue shared after RSVP.

This is conversation we need to be having so come sit with us! Brittinae Bell, Senior Education Manager for the Black Health Initiative at Planned Parenthood LA, is walking us through what’s actually happening in our bodies and how we can speak up for ourselves when we’re talking to our doctors. She’s been doing this work for almost ten years and knows how to make the conversation feel easy, not clinical.

We’ll open and close the evening with a little somatic movement, just enough to help everyone settle in and actually be present.

RSVP open now at the link in the bio or BWWLA.org

I just released my first position paper, Menopause Education Before Intervention: Why Foundational Knowledge Is Essential to Informed Care.

Women should not be expected to make decisions about symptoms, treatment options, and care without first receiving clear, unbiased menopause education.

Education doesn't replace medical care. It helps women understand their options and participate more confidently in their care.

Mental disorganization isn't brain fog. While brain fog impacts thinking quality, disorganization affects your ability to organize, plan, and execute tasks. Understanding this distinction is key to addressing it effectively.

09/16/2026

Estrogen affects your brain, heart, bones, skin, and gut – not just reproductive organs. Symptoms like brain fog and joint pain can feel unrelated, but they stem from a single hormonal shift showing up in multiple areas. Understanding this connection is key.

09/16/2026

Brain fog, heart palpitations, joint pain—you've described it all, yet walked out of exam rooms with no answers. Many women wait years, even seeing multiple doctors, before their symptoms are correctly connected to menopause. This episode reveals why and what's been standing in the way.
