This resolution expresses the Senate's support for designating October 2025 as "World Menopause Awareness Month." It acknowledges the profound impact of menopause on women's individual and societal well-being, as well as on national health and economic development. The Senate recognizes that millions of women experience severe and prolonged symptoms, often with insufficient guidance and disproportionate effects on Black and Hispanic women, leading to significant costs in lost productivity. The resolution promotes the inclusion of menopause training in health worker curricula and supports women's access to appropriate health information and services for healthy aging. It specifically encourages the Secretaries of Health and Human Services, Defense, and Veterans Affairs to provide comprehensive information to patients and providers, conduct additional research on menopause and clinical options, and update existing resources to improve the quality of life for women affected by menopause.
