World Menopause Day

When is World Menopause Day (WMD)?

In World Menopause Day 2021 the International Menopause Society (IMS) explain:

“World Menopause Day is held every year on the 18th October. The purpose of the day is to raise awareness of the menopause and the support options available for improving health and wellbeing”.2

World Menopause Month

What is World Menopause Month?

The IMS note:

“Since it is not always possible for local societies to arrange activities for this specific day, the IMS has now designated October as World Menopause Month. Local societies can also collaborate with other organizations working in the field of adult women’s health, such as societies for osteoporosis and breast cancer, to organize joint events. World Menopause Month can also be a call to implement policies that support research and treatment in the area of menopausal health”.3

World Menopause Day 2021

What was the theme for WMD 2021?

In World Menopause Day 2021 the IMS explain:

“The theme for 2021 was Bone Health”.4

Patient Information Leaflet

What do the IMS note about bone health in their Patient Information Leaflet: Update on Bone Health?

On page two in Bone Health: What Do We Mean By “Bone Health”? the IMS note:

World Menopause Day 2021“In healthy bone, up to the menopause, the production of new bone happens more than the removal of old bone, but the opposite happens after menopause. After your last menstrual period, your ovaries stop the production of the hormone estrogen. This leads to increased removal of bone which results in decreased bone strength. Age-related changes also lead to increased removal of bone”.5

Update on Bone Health: The IMS White Paper

What do the IMS explain about their Update on Bone Health: The IMS White Paper?

In World Menopause Day: Update on Bone Health: The IMS White Paper the IMS explain:

“The International Menopause Society has commissioned two experts at the forefront of their specialty to define the state of the art in the understanding of this condition, to advise on practical management strategies and to propose future research strategies”.6
