The Issue

 

Despite the critical importance of managing menopausal and perimenopausal symptoms, the NHS health check offered to women over the age of 40 in the UK does not currently contain information about this time of life. This oversight leaves millions of women uninformed about an event that can significantly impact their quality of life in the long and the short term. Moreover, the absence of education and effective management strategies can exacerbate the associated symptoms. Therefore, we respectfully lobby for the inclusion of menopause information in these health checks provided by the National Health Service. The health and well-being of many UK women depend on this necessary support. Join us in advocating for this vital change, and sign our petition today.
