Written Question
Menopause
Tuesday 26th March 2024

Asked by: Lord Strathcarron (Conservative - Excepted Hereditary)

Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of reports that draft NHS guidance stated that "Not everyone who experiences menopause is a woman."

Answered by Lord Markham - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department of Health and Social Care)

NHS England is reviewing its internal policy on menopause, which applies to National Health Service staff. A draft was briefly published in error by NHS England on 13 March 2024. NHS England plans to publish the updated staff policy in the next few weeks. No specific assessment was made by the Government of the draft guidance prior to this.

We have been clear that biological sex matters, and it is important to use language that recognises the separate health and biological needs of men and women. It is also important that health information is provided in language that is inclusive of everyone that needs to hear it, so everyone who can be affected by certain conditions can get the help they need.
