Low energy, brain fog, weight gain, poor sleep and no real answers?

After 55, it’s rarely “aging.”
It’s low functioning s*x hormones driving bone loss, muscle loss (sarcopenia), rising heart risk and cognitive decline.

• 1 in 3 women has osteopenia and doesn’t know it
• Muscle loss accelerates after menopause
• Estrogen loss is linked to heart disease & Alzheimer’s risk

Most doctors aren’t trained in post-menopausal care.

Let us help you find the answers!

Can you help?

Dr. Lorraine Bedwell from Manchester Metropolitan University is researching how factors like ethnicity, caring responsibilities, location, and financial circumstances create barriers to physical activity during menopause.

Approximately, 40% of women aged 40-60 aren’t meeting physical activity guidelines (Sport England, 2024).

Menopause Matters members have the lived experience this research needs, particularly those whose voices are often missing from mainstream health studies.

The study is looking to reach individuals aged 18–60 experiencing any stage of menopause, at any activity level, who would be willing to share their experiences through either an 8-week online diary (15 minutes weekly) or a single 60-minute interview.

What’s involved:

8-week online diary OR 60-minute interview

Completely voluntary and confidential

💪Motivation

Movement doesn’t have to be perfect to matter—it just has to happen. ✨

Getting active is about finding small ways to move more in your everyday life. A walk during lunch, dancing to your favorite song, taking the stairs, or playing with your family, kids, grandkids, coworkers and friends all count.

You don’t need a gym. Go outside
You don’t need hours. Take 10 minutes
You just need to start where you are. SUCCESS

Try one new way to move this week and see how it feels. Small steps build energy, confidence, and momentum—and they add up faster than you think.

You’ve got this. Keep moving forward. 🌱
