Halle Berry recently revealed that her sex life is better than ever.
Appearing on the Making Space with Hoda Kotb podcast, Berry shared how she reclaimed “her sexuality through menopause.”
“Down that path of life, perimenopause, everything gets dry, like I said, and so intimacy and sex can become painful,” Berry told Kotb. “And so many divorces happen around this time of life because women become unable and unwilling to have sex because it’s so painful.”
Berry then spoke about her partnership with JoyLux on Juicy Like a Peach, a new vaginal dryness gel treatment. She says it has taken her sex life to another level.
She initially thought that she “could not have sex anymore” during perimenopause, but now that is not the case.
“I am juicy like a peach,” she said. “My sex life is back batting 100.”
In a previous interview with PEOPLE, Berry spoke about why the product is important for so many women.
“When I got plummeted into perimenopause, I knew nothing about it,” Berry said. “I had a rude awakening. I was in the bowels of hell trying to deal with it.”
Berry noted that she had experienced symptoms for 10 years but was still unaware.
“None of my doctors uttered a word about menopause, perimenopause, change of life, nothing,” she says. “They all just kept telling me, ‘You look great.’ They never told me that no matter what you look like, your hormones are changing and your insides are aging. Like, nobody dared say that.”
Berry said that “Juicy Like a Peach helps menopausal women “feel like themselves again.”
“That was always my goal, ‘How do I find that juice again?’ And that I connected to my youthful years when I was always juicy, juices were flowing constantly. And I desperately wanted that feeling again. I desperately wanted to reclaim my sexuality, my intimacy; I wanted to feel confident again.”
“It’s what we’re all hoping for,” says Berry. “Because that’s what this new technology actually does. It really does make you, I kid you not, drippy, juicy like a peach.”
