Study reveals lack of menopause education among American women

Three in five women (60%) say they are entirely self-taught when it comes to menopause knowledge, according to new research. A new survey of 2,000 American women found many feel they are overly targeted with information about pregnancy and childbirth but feel under-resourced when it comes to perimenopause and menopause. Additionally, three in four women (74%) agree that there is more information available on pregnancy than there is on perimenopause and menopause. Conducted by Talker Research on behalf of Doctor’s Best, results showed women were three times more likely to have a lack of knowledge about perimenopause (21%) than pregnancy (7%).
