18th October is World Menopause Day – Cognition & Mood
The theme for World Menopause Day 2022 is Cognition and Mood.
World Menopause Day is held every year on the 18th of October. The day was designated by the International Menopause Society (IMS) to raise awareness of the menopause and to support options to improve health and well-being for women in mid-life and beyond.
The International Menopause Society has produced a White Paper for health care professionals, Brain fog in menopause: a health-care professional’s guide for decision-making and counseling on cognition, written by Professor Pauline M. Maki and Doctor Nicole G. Jaff.
IMS have also produced a leaflet for women with practical information about brain fog and keeping healthy.
The patient leaflet and the White Paper which is published in the Climacteric with permanent free access is available at the International Menopause Society Website.
