The NHS event, held at a Sheffield hotel, is said to be the first of its kind in the county.
The peri-menopause is when signs of declining oestrogen may first become noticeable to women. It starts, on average, at 46.
The brain, menstrual cycle, skin, muscles and emotions are all affected by hormone fluctuations and around 75% of women will report signs before their periods stop. Christine Joy, chief people officer at NHS South Yorkshire, said: "Our workforce demographic means that supporting people with menopausal symptoms is not a nice to do, it is absolutely essential.
"As a leading employer in South Yorkshire, we want to ensure that our colleagues, managers, and leaders have awareness of the impact of menopausal symptoms so that we can provide the necessary support in the workplace."
