The [M] Factor 2: Before the Pause. Perimenopause🎬 Film Screening + Live Q&A

​"The M Factor 2: Before The Pause. Perimenopause." is a documentary about perimenopause, the transitional years before menopause, set to premiere early 2026, following the successful film "The M Factor" on menopause. It aims to educate women and the public about often-misunderstood hormonal changes, starting earlier in a woman's mid-30s, with a goal of increasing awareness, promoting better healthcare, and changing societal narratives around aging. 

​We’re hosting a special evening to watch the film, learn from leading voices in women’s health, and connect with others who care deeply about advancing health equity and understanding.
