My wife says that she thinks that women who are high strung tend to have these temper explosions and that those who are calmer by nature do not.

Anybody out there whose wife got through menopause without all this drama?

And I am glad to have read this thread so that I wil be prepared if my wife does have an adverse reaction, so to speak.
