Malayalam actor Lenaa Kumar on her new book on menopause
Malayalam actor Lenaa Kumar has released a book titled 'Women-O-Pause' to provide a guide for women navigating menopause and perimenopause. She frames this life stage as a positive transition rather than a disaster, sharing personal experiences and the benefits of functional medicine.
Why it matters
The book aims to destigmatize menopause and provide practical support for women undergoing significant physical and emotional life changes.
While talking about her latest book Women-O-Pause - A mid-life guide for women and their men , actor-writer Lenaa Kumar says that one of the reasons she wrote was her desire to give something of value to the people who have showered her with love for close to 30 years of her career as an actor. “As an actor, I have entertained the audience, but that is my job. But this [the book] I am giving as a person for the love people give me. Wherever (in the world) I come across Malayalis, they invite me into their homes and offer me a meal. I cannot go to each person and talk to them, so, with this book I am sharing what has worked for me and I hope it helps others too.”
