MULTICULTURAL MEDIA ONLINE CONFERENCE – 15 November 2023 ...

Multicultural Media Briefing – 18th October 2023 Menopause Menopause occurs when someone has not had a period for 12 months. Most women reach menopause between the ages of 45 and 55. The lead up to menopause is called perimenopause. There are many hormonal changes during this time, which may cause symptoms like hot flushes (suddenly feeling very hot), sweating at night, trouble sleeping and changes in mood. For World Menopause Day, the NSW Government has launched a new menopause awareness campaign. In that, the free online toolkit, includes a menopause symptoms checklist and podcast series about common symptoms of perimenopause and menopause. The toolkit has been translated into eight languages to support diverse communities. A new resource for partners and family members of those experiencing perimenopause and menopause has also been developed and shared via the toolkit.
