Highlights - Menopause care in the EU - Committee on Women’s Rights and Gender Equality
On Tuesday, 24 March 2026, the FEMM Committee jointly with the Committee on Public Health will hold a hearing on “Menopause care in the EU“.Menopause has a profound impact on millions of women across Europe, disrupting their health, family life, and careers, while also carrying wider societal implications. Nearly 90% of women in Europe will experience menopause during their lifetime, making it one of the most widespread and significant health transitions. Menopause influences women's participation in the workforce, as women of menopausal age constitute the fastest-growing group in the workforce accounting for 11% of the G7 workforce, their ability to manage caregiving responsibilities, and their overall health outcomes, with broader consequences for economic productivity, gender equality, and social wellbeing. This hearing will analyse how European-level initiatives could address stigma and misinformation, how the EU could support menopause care initiatives and invest in menopause research, and how to coordinate policy across the EU.
