This resolution expresses support for designating October 2026 as "World Menopause Awareness Month" and calls for increased global awareness and access to care for women experiencing menopause. The resolution highlights that millions of women worldwide will enter menopause in the coming years, often with limited guidance, and that menopause symptoms can be severe enough to affect work performance and cause women to leave the workforce entirely, costing the U.S. an estimated $1.8 billion annually in lost productivity. It notes that certain groups, including Black and Hispanic women, may experience menopause symptoms that are more intense and longer-lasting. The resolution encourages the Secretaries of Health and Human Services, Defense, and Veterans Affairs to improve education about menopause treatments, conduct additional research, and provide better information to patients and healthcare providers. No specific funding is authorized by this resolution, as it is a non-binding expression of support rather than legislation that appropriates money or creates new programs.
