Maria Bello Returns to Instagram, Shares Menopause Journey

After trying various methods to combat menopause, the actress embraces the process and moves to Paris.

Maria Bello, the 56-year-old actress, has returned to Instagram after a two-year hiatus, which she refers to as a '(meno)PAUSE'.
Bello detailed her attempts to combat the signs of menopause, which included taking bio-identical hormones, dieting, trying Ozempic, Botox, fillers, lasers, face creams, cellulite machines, face threads, teeth straightening, and micro-dosing psilocybin.
Despite her efforts, Bello gained 15 pounds and experienced constant nausea and vomiting from Ozempic.
In October 2021, Bello left Hollywood and all social media and moved to Paris, where she decided to embrace menopause and immerse herself in the '7 tasks of mid-life' that Carl Jung spoke about.
Bello plans to share her journey and hopes to inspire others to embrace menopause and the 'second half of life'.
