A recent study by Nuffield Health revealed that 67% of women felt there was little support for those going through menopause from health services, while 25% found their GP didn’t link their symptoms to the menopause at all.
A worrying notion, considering almost eight out of 10 of menopausal women are in work, according to the Faculty of Occupational Medicine, Government Report on Menopause.
Early symptoms of the menopause are often overlooked or even worse, not recognised as being linked to certain cancers due to their similar early warning signs.
