More Than My Menopause

“Tete told us about periods. She sat us down and explained the bleeding, the pain, the fear of boys. But she never told us about this part. The silence. The night sweats. The loss of desire…”

What happens when the body you’ve known your whole life begins to shift — and no one ever prepared you for it?

In More Than My Menopause, Vonayi Nyamazana breaks the cultural silence around menopause with searing honesty, grace, and power. Weaving memoir, faith, and cultural truth-telling, she shares her personal journey through perimenopause and beyond , one marked by confusion, loneliness, divine encounters, and deep rediscovery.

This is not just a book. It is a torch for Black African women navigating midlife in a world that often erases them. It’s a conversation we never had — but deeply needed. A cultural reckoning. A faith-rooted reclamation. A healing invitation.

Raw. Unfiltered. Empowering.

You are more than your menopause.
