In this episode, the host Kirstin Bouse discusses the findings of a recent Senate inquiry in Australia that looked at the wide-ranging impacts of menopause on women's health, careers, families, and overall well-being.
The inquiry received over 290 submissions from women sharing their lived experiences, as well as healthcare professionals, researchers, and policymakers. The key takeaways were stark - menopause has a profound impact on women's mental health, often leaving them feeling like they don't recognize themselves anymore due to changes in their cognitive abilities, emotional regulation, and overall sense of self.
However, Kirstin notes that mental health services and many healthcare providers still don't have a strong enough understanding of how menopause can trigger issues like anxiety and depression.
This reinforces what Kirstin sees in her own clinical work - that the psychological and emotional toll of menopause is often overlooked, even as women struggle to cope with the transition.
By unpacking the findings of this important inquiry, Kirstin aims to shine a light on the need for greater awareness, education, and support around menopause.
