“In France, menopause management remains a real desert” – Liberation

Professor Florence Tremollier, responsible for a pioneering center in Toulouse, points out that despite the lack of media coverage and initiatives, there is a wide range of possibilities to support women.

Endocrinologist and Gynecologist, Head of the Menopause Center at Paul de Vigier Hospital (University Hospital of Toulouse), Head of the Study Group on Menopause and Hormonal Aging, Professor Florence Tremoulier regrets the lack of information and initiatives on this topic.

Is there really anything new that happens as menopause approaches?

There has already been excitement over the past 12 or 18 months, especially in the media – articles in newspapers, TV shows, influencers on social networks. But menopause management remains a real desert. in The “All for Menopause” statement.We issued a whole series of measures, but they did not receive much attention. The government has offered three free health checks in 2022, for ages 25, 45 and 65. In fact, counseling at the age of 45 would at least make it possible, even if the woman at that age has not yet fully reached menopause, to inform her of what will happen and prepare her for the necessity of changing her lifestyle. They have the benefit of undergoing a medical examination when menstruation stops, etc. Unfortunately, this proposal remains wishful thinking to this day.
