The Care Gap in Menopause
Menopause is a universal experience, yet most women are still left to navigate it alone. Up to 80% of women experience disruptive symptoms such as hot flashes, sleep changes, mood shifts, or brain fog.
Despite how common this transition is, care for this life stage remains underresearched and underserved. Too often, women find themselves:
- Told to "Wait it Out": Being dismissed or told their symptoms are just "part of aging".
- Misdiagnosed with Other Conditions: Symptoms like anxiety or depression are treated without addressing the root hormonal cause.
- Bounced Between Specialists: Having to piece together disjointed care from multiple doctors who only treat one symptom at a time.
- Uninformed: In a 2023 U.S. survey, only one in four women said they felt very knowledgeable about menopause, and two-thirds said more doctors trained in menopause care are needed.
This gap leaves millions of women struggling in silence, leading to years of preventable discomfort and missed opportunities to protect long-term health.
