Menopause HELP!
I would like to see the implementation of a national awareness program around the menopause and the peri menopause so that women can understand better the implication of the symptoms on their health and well-being. Coupled with some form of professional development training for GPs so they can assist women better in this area. My experience showed me that GP knowledge in this area is not at a level which ensures that NZ women receive the best care they can.
Why the contribution is important
Going through this journey myself, I can attest to the fact that there is not much information or support from GPs. I had to see a number of specialist doctors to get the help I needed and this was not an easy or cheap process.

Also, treat trans people in the same way because the brain is meant to run on one type of hormone and if it isn't then it and the body won't work properly together like it should, that's just my 2c as a trans person
