Health and fitness has always been top of Halle's list of priorities. Prior to taking off for Mexico, the Oscar-winning actress appeared alongside First Lady Dr. Jill Biden for Propper Daley's fourth "A Day of Unreasonable Conversation" summit, talking women's health and, more specifically, menopause.

"First of all, my ego told me that I was going to skip [perimenopause]," she shared. "I'm in great shape. I'm healthy. I managed to get myself off of insulin and manage my diabetes since I'm 20 years old. So that makes one think, oh, I can handle menopause. I'm going to skip that whole thing. I was so uneducated about it at that time."

"I run to my gynecologist and I say, 'Oh my God, what's happening?' It was terrible," Halle remembered, explaining that she wanted to share her story so candidly in the hopes that it would help others. "He said, 'You have the worst case of herpes I've ever seen.' I'm like, 'Herpes? I don't have herpes!'"

However, after taking an STD test with Van, and both testing negative, she realized that it wasn't herpes at all. "I realize after the fact, that is a symptom of perimenopause."
