7th March 2023 was a landmark day in Parliament House: the #MenopauseMatters Parliamentary Round Table was the first time that menopause had been formally discussed in those hallowed (predominantly male) halls. We had it all: flooding periods, tears, VAGINAS (!)… and that was just the politicians’ speeches!

Support the fight: Donate 2 minutes to our survey!

Help us to advocate for better information, services and care in the menopausal transition by sharing your experience of seeking treatment; was it easy or difficult?

The results of this survey will be used to directly inform other doctors about patients' needs, and to lobby government for a National Menopause Action Plan.

We will report back with the results in next months newsletter.
