Health professionals invited to contribute to Australia’s first perimenopause and menopause clinical guidelines

Health professionals in Australia are being invited to contribute to the development of the country’s first clinical guidelines on perimenopause and menopause. The invitation comes from health.gov.au, the Australian government’s health department website.

Who can contribute and how?

The call for contributions is open to health professionals across various disciplines. The guidelines aim to provide evidence-based recommendations for the care of individuals experiencing perimenopause and menopause. By participating, health professionals can help shape the standards of care that will be used across the healthcare system.

Why are these guidelines needed?

Perimenopause and menopause are significant life stages that can have a substantial impact on health and well-being. Currently, there are no national clinical guidelines in Australia to guide healthcare providers in managing these conditions. The development of these guidelines will help ensure consistent, high-quality care for individuals navigating this transition.

How to participate

Health professionals who wish to contribute can find more information on the health.gov.au website, including details on the contribution process and timelines. The guidelines are expected to be developed through a collaborative process, drawing on the expertise of a wide range of healthcare professionals.
