Menopause & Mental Health Resources

​Mental Health Reform and Mental Health Engagement and Recovery ReportMental Health Reform (MHR) and the HSE’s Mental Health Engagement and Recovery (MHER) Team conducted two surveys in 2022 to gauge how women felt their mental health and menopause needs respectively were being dealt with in Ireland. The analysis of the conversations identified some common issues and themes, such as the impact on menopause on women’s wellbeing and mental health, inconsistent menopause awareness and knowledge among health professionals and self-help and the support of other women.

Athlone Institute of Technology ReportIn 2021, the Athlone Institute of Technology conducted the study “Experiences and health behaviours of menopausal women in Ireland”.
A key finding was that the majority of women (77%) felt that they were not prepared for menopause. When asked where they receive their information regarding the menopause the most common response was social media (53%) followed by government websites (40%) and the GP (21%). Family (3%) and friends (6%) were not common sources for gaining information.

This list can be used when communicating with your medical provider or supporters.
