How Halle Berry Ended Up Explaining Menopause to Mike Tyson

As a dedicated follower and admirer of Halle Berry, I find her recent conversation about menopause with Mike Tyson to be nothing short of inspiring. Here is a woman, an iconic figure in Hollywood, using her platform to normalize conversations about women’s health, particularly a topic as crucial as menopause.


Halle Berry had a knockout conversation about menopause with Mike Tyson

Indeed, when the previous heavyweight champion and his spouse, Lakiha Spicer, encountered Halle during a backstage meeting at Jimmy Kimmel Live, it turned out that Halle engaged Mike in conversation on a subject that has gained significance for her in recent times.

Did you ever think about Mike Tyson mentioning ‘menopause’? That’s what Halle jokingly shared with Jimmy Kimmel when he inquired if they were indeed discussing menopause during her September 25th show. She said, “We were! And that’s the fun part of our conversation. We had a chat with his wife KiKi, and I reassured her, ‘I’ve got you covered, when the time comes, I’ll be well-versed on this subject.’

The Oscar-winning actress admitted she was the first to bring up menopause—which is the time a woman’s period ends and her ability to reproduce stops—while talking to Kiki and that Mike needed a little bit of clarity.

In a conversation, she mentioned, “He asked, ‘What’s this menopause?'” She went on to say, “We discussed it further, and he questioned if it affected one’s sexual activity. At which point, I clarified that it could indeed have an impact.

Halle reassured Mike and Kiki that the alteration wouldn’t disrupt their private moments. She emphasized this point by saying, “If you secure what you require in advance – be it knowledge or personal growth – you’ll remain as fresh and vibrant as a ripe peach.

The actress from “The Union” similarly expressed that since she lacked the right equipment when these bodily transformations began for her, she has no qualms about imparting her knowledge to anyone regarding the unavoidable adjustments a woman’s body undergoes.

She shared with Jimmy, “I didn’t receive assistance,” she said. “At 58, no one aided me. I aim to become an advocate for future generations of women, providing them with essential information before it catches them off guard, making them feel as though they’re losing their minds.

On more than one occasion, the Academy Award winner has been open about this phase of a woman’s life. Back in March, Halle Berry revealed that she had just started experiencing menopause after visiting the doctor and disclosed that she was experiencing a lot of discomfort during intimate moments with her partner, Van Hunt.

Her doctor initially misdiagnosed her condition as a severe case of cold sores or fever blisters, which are characterized by the appearance of blisters and ulcers.

During the A Day Of Unreasonable Conversation Summit on March 25, Halle shared that she discovered later it was a sign of perimenopause. She mentioned this to First Lady Dr. Jill Biden, adding that her doctor hadn’t warned or prepared her about it beforehand.

Following that point, Halle disclosed that she had vowed to leverage her influence to enlighten and inform, not just women but also men, with the aim of altering the connotations associated with the often misunderstood term.

She emphasized during the summit, “We need to reframe the situation, not just focus on the negative aspects.” She went on to say, “This is an extraordinary period in our lives, full of promise and potential.
