UNDERSTANDING AND TREATING MENOPAUSE

Supporting you through every stage: Understanding Menopause and the help that’s here for you.

Every woman’s experience with menopause is different, but one thing is certain: It’s a major life transition that deserves understanding, compassion and support. Memorial Hermann was one of the first large health systems to sign a Memorandum of Understanding with Midi Health, a leader in women’s health services, focused on menopause care.

We partner with Midi Health to provide employees and their families expert support designed to meet you where you are. Whether you’re in the early stages of perimenopause, managing symptoms or navigating the changes that come with menopause, you have access to the care and understanding you deserve.

We see you. We understand that menopause is a deeply personal journey, and we want you to know you don’t have to go through it alone. We’re committed to supporting you and your family with the same expertise and empathy we use to care for our patients.

The Society for Women’s Health Research has published the following information about menopause:

  • Each day, approximately 6,000 women in the U.S. reach menopause
  • 51 is the average age of menopause in the U.S.
  • Menopause causes a significant decrease in the hormone estrogen

The National Institutes of Health lists symptoms related to estrogen deficiency:

  • 75% – 80% of women experience vasomotor symptoms, including hop flashes, night sweats, palpitations and migraines.
  • Approximately 50% – 75% of women experience genitourinary syndrome of menopause, including thinning of the vaginal mucosa and reduced elasticity of the vagina. These changes cause dryness, burning, Pruritus and irritation. Also may cause recurring urinary tract infections.
  • Up to 70% of women experience psychogenic symptoms, including anger/irritability, anxiety/tension, depression, loss of concentration and loss of self-esteem/confidence.
  • Many menopausal women generally report more sleep difficulties, decreases in some aspect of cognitive performance, decrease in sexual desire and function and more.
