Drew Barrymore sheds light on her struggles with menopausal symptoms.
During a recent episode of “The Drew Barrymore Show,” the 51-year-old actress and host shared that she is dealing with bloating and hormonal changes as her menopausal symptoms begin to appear.
“I can’t even start today without being honest because I can’t fake anything,” she said on the show. “I’m so bloated I feel like a carp brought to the beach and I’m just that dead fish.”
When Barrymore’s co-host Ross Matthews asked why she was bloated, the actress revealed she got her period after an 11-month break.
“I was about to hit my one-year period milestone and head straight into menopause where I belong… I get it,” Barrymore spilled. “I see. I’m 11 months old. So I’m going back to zero.”
Barrymore went on to say, “And ugh, I feel unattractive and I’m so hormonal and nothing is right and I’m irritable and I’m bloated and I’m emotionally unstable. How are you?”
“Anyway,” Barrymore joked. “I feel a lot better because at least now you know where I stand. And I always feel better after I’m here.”
