Dee Murray, founder and CEO at Menopause Experts Group, said: “Menopause is one of the last taboos in women’s health, and it’s about time America was talking about it.
Almost three quarters of a million American women start menopause every year without any access to education or training, according to research from Menopause Experts Group.
Some 734,000 women endure symptoms including hot flashes, night sweats and brain fog without any understanding of what is happening to them.
More than four million women in the United States let their menopause symptoms go untreated every year, with treatment costing $300 a year on average.
The findings come as Menopause Experts Group launches free menopause training for American women and men.
The company offers comprehensive, trustworthy and up-to-date information to help women understand and manage often debilitating symptoms like forgetfulness, hot flashes, headaches, itchy skin, night sweats, brain fog and low or non-existent sex drive.
Menopause Experts Group’s training is completely free, making vital information available to all people whatever their ability to pay. On average, specialists will charge $250 or more for a consultation.
Free training and support covers all aspects of menopause including biology of the female body and the effects that declining hormones like estrogen, progesterone and testosterone have on women’s health. It examines the pros and cons of Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) and looks at alternative ways to manage symptoms naturally through diet and lifestyle. Education could prevent relationship breakdowns, loss of income and even suicide.
Menopause Experts Group was founded by retired Advanced Psychotherapist and Human Behaviourist Dee Murray, who recognised menopause was one of the last womens health taboos, and soon realised that an entire generation now feel that they have been forgetten, under supported and frustrated by the lack of knowledge from healthcare professionals.
