- Menopause impacts women’s relationships, especially with their intimate partner/s and family members
- Domestic abuse impacts menopause symptoms; with negative symptoms or experiences compounding or obscuring one another
- Women view menopause as a pivotal moment for making life changes, suggesting that menopause may be a key time when women are looking for support to escape domestic abuse…”.
Who is a GP?
