We’re raising awareness about perimenopause and menopause this World Menopause Day (18 October)

Department of Health

About 1 in 2 women report mild to moderate menopause-related symptoms. Around 1 in 4 women have symptoms severe enough to affect their daily activities. And around 1 in 4 women have no symptoms.

We’re working to increase community conversation, education and better support women through this life stage.

This World Menopause Day:

  • visit our website at health.gov.au/perimenopause for information on symptoms, treatments and management options
  • tune into the special Out Loud podcast episode ‘PeriCurious’ we’ve developed in partnership with Mamamia. Download the episode wherever you listen to your favourite podcasts.
