Menopause has been part of the lives of women since time began. Or at least since women lived long enough to age into it! Over time and depending on the culture, a great deal of mystery, confusion and misunderstanding has encircled this season of a woman’s life.
As women’s health changes so significantly in midlife, World Menopause Day seeks to inform and educate about menopause, raising awareness about what women should expect and encouraging them to get the help they need from health care providers and other support workers. From cognitive issues to mood changes, from weight gain to sleeping problems, menopause is much more than just the absence of periods. In fact, the process of transition in menopause typically lasts around seven or more years, but can be up to fourteen years. This is a large chunk of a woman’s life!
Reducing the amount of secrecy and shame of this natural process that happens to half of the world’s population, World Menopause Day is a day for women, women communities, health care workers and others to advocate and get involved.
Founded by the World Health Organization in cooperation with the International Menopause Society, World Menopause Month is celebrated in October, and World Menopause Day is specifically dedicated on October 18.
