Details of two new courses to help individuals before and during the menopause have been published as part of the launch of the UK's first menopause education and support programme, created by UCL researchers
University College LondonSep 14 2024 Details of two new courses to help individuals before and during the menopause have been published as part of the launch of the UK's first menopause education and support program, created by UCL researchers.
A core aim of the UCL team is to co-design InTune with a diverse range of women and people who are affected by the menopause, to ensure that it is relevant, accessible and inclusive. Our vision is of high quality, inclusive menopause awareness, education and support, for everyone. We will achieve this by developing and delivering a non-commercial program of holistic support and education about menopause, co-designed with stakeholders and the public." Be Prepared for Menopause is a two-hour interactive session aimed at individuals under 40 who have not yet reached perimenopause, but anyone can attend.
The perimenopause usually occurs around three to five years before the onset of menopause. During this stage women's estrogen and progesterone levels begin to fluctuate, causing them to experience mood changes, irregular menstrual cycles and other menopausal symptoms. The team will ensure that both courses will be available online and in-person, and that the content will be adapted for a diverse range of target audiences, including people who are neurodivergent, racially or sexually minoritised, and those living with an existing health condition.
New details published in Women's Health reveal how InTune can help address this lack of information and ensure that people reaching menopause have a greater understanding of what is happening to their bodies.
