The Facts

From the billion women navigating menopause right now, to the one in four in the UK who didn’t pursue a promotion because of their symptoms—these facts matter. They reveal the scale of what’s been overlooked. And they remind us that menopause isn’t just personal—it’s structural.Knowledge is power. And we hope that by sharing these facts, we can help shift the conversation, raise awareness, and change how we care for each other through this transition.

These numbers weren’t easy to find— and they were even harder to take in. They were scattered, buried, or simply not being tracked. But once we started piecing them together, a bigger picture emerged—one that shows just how deeply menopause affects not only women, but families, partnerships, workplaces, and entire economies.
