Mel B has revealed how the menopause has "taken its toll" on her health.
The 50-year-old Spice Girls legend has joined Revive Collagen as a brand ambassador or its Menopause range, and she has reflected on her own struggles with the natural end of menstrual cycles, which typically happens between the ages of 45 and 55.
She told the Daily Mail newspaper: "I've been through my own menopause journey. Hot sweats, night sweats.
"Then you're cold, then you forget what you've gone downstairs for, then you go back upstairs and it's ongoing. God it takes its toll.
"I think there's something like 48 symptoms. I've more or less had nearly all of them at some point."
Symptoms of the menopause include hot flushes, night sweats, irritability, anxiety, low self-esteem, brain fog, palpitations and more.
The Wannabe hitmaker urged women to make sure they're "educated" about the impact of the changes.
She added: "This is why it's important to educate ourselves because us as women we need to take control over this.
"Do ourselves justice and make it easier and more simple for us, right?"
Mel has made waves this week after sharing a video of herself in a very revealing bikini baring her backside as she walks towards the sea.
The captioned the Instagram post: "ITS MONDAY and I’m walkinn away from the NOISE… so if thats what your bringing you can KISS MY [**S]! (sic)"
The cryptic post comes after reports the Spice Girls' 30th anniversary reunion has been cancelled after the group - which also featured Mel C, Emma Bunton, Geri Halliwell-Horner and Victoria Beckham - weren't able to get their together in time.
Mel C recently admitted while nothing is in the pipeline right now, she is still "very optimistic" for the future.
She told The Smallzy Show: "No, there is no reunion.
“We are communicating all the time. We want to do something – who knows when.
“But I still feel very optimistic and I keep my fingers crossed that you will see the Spice Girls together at some point in the future.”
