So let's try and explain this to men.

So you have this constant burning penis.

Your foreskin is really hurting.

You have small cuts appearing out of nowhere.

You don't even want to have sex.

So how would this be?

No man would accept this, right?

The whole world would be...

I think it's one of your colleagues saying there would be a vaccine, or maybe Rachel Rubin is saying this, there would already be a vaccine for many years.

And I think also genitourian syndrome of menopause or hormones, it's probably the last taboo of menopause.

And some women, I think, you know, in the Netherlands, I like to think we're quite open.

I think your sister was saying after my presentation, oh, it's so good.

Dutch people are so open.

And normally I must say I'm a very private person, but I think after my struggle for, you know, like I said, it took me 14 years.

I feel like every woman on the earth needs to know and also because

symptoms can start in your 30s.

But also if you don't get this around your menopause, I know a woman who's in her 70s who just recently started getting these symptoms.

So I've been helping her with like, you know, getting the right treatment.

So, and I was reading another article where they said between, it was like some really random numbers, between 27 and 78% of women get these symptoms.

And that's a wide range.
