Cultural differences in Menopause

Read more from Dr Radhika Vohra on how cultural variations can make recognising menopause symptoms more challenging for the women themselves and for the medical practitioners that look after them.

Everyone should feel empowered to understand the impact menopause will have on their life, so they can increase not only their lifespan but also their quality of life.

Imagine if over half the UK population was to experience the same life-changing health condition, which if disregarded would contribute to an increase in disease and illness, an increase in mental health issues, and the likelihood of losing jobs and marriages. Wouldn’t we want to do something about that?

This is the current situation for 33 million women in the UK who, at some stage in their life, experience menopause.

Our experience shows that when women have access to evidence-based menopause information, it helps them seek out relevant and appropriate care and treatment.

No two menopause stories are the same. Every woman will experience it differently.

Every story is different, an equitable society understands how menopause impacts everyone differently; no one should be disadvantaged because of menopause.

Your support this #IWD2023 helps us #EmbraceEquity ensuring everyone has better access to the information they deserve so that they thrive.
