Education is vital: Menopause doesn’t just affect women - it impacts couples, families, and relationships too. Yet so many men admit they know little or nothing about it. When men understand what's happening, they're better placed to support their partners and strengthen their relationships rather than feeling shut out or confused.

Talk about it: Silence around menopause can make women feel isolated. Just asking, “How are you feeling today?” or “Is there anything I can do to help?” opens the door to a conversation.
