Fund menopause support being added to the NHS Health Checks for women over 40

Research has revealed that 90% of premenopausal women want to know more about the menopause before it starts, and over 60% of women feel uninformed about the healthcare choices available during and after perimenopause, with women in perimenopause and postmenopause continuing to not know (63.1% and 64.2% respectively).
