Women comprise more than half the U.S. population and 100% will experience menopause in their lifetime. Yet, midlife women’s healthcare has gone largely unrecognized and menopause care and research has not been given the attention or funding it requires and deserves.
But change is happening!
In 2025, women across the country demanded more coverage, more access to information and resources, and greater awareness — and legislators listened! State Representatives have been working tirelessly to advance and pass legislation in support of important menopause mandates. To date, 19 states have introduced upwards of three dozen bills to improve menopause care, coverage and treatment - and 8 of those bills are now law!
That 1-in-4 states have proposed menopause laws shows that citizen advocacy works — that’s progress!
Let’s Talk Menopause is joining forces with these advocates to help facilitate introduction and passage of menopause legislation and - COMING SOON - you'll be able to participate! If you reside in a state that LTM will be working with in 2026, you'll be able to deliver pre-written letters of support to your State Representative- it’s that simple!
