New Date! Menopause 101: Supporting the Shift with Sleep, Physical Activity & Nutrition

Join NIH Wellness Programs as we dive into a life cycle change called menopause. For many women, the vast array of physical, cognitive and emotional symptoms can begin up to ten years prior to menopause during the transition phase of perimenopause, and continue during the post-menopausal years. The “change” affects more than those who identify as females, and a community approach to menopause can support us all. The goal of this session is to understand the changes associated with menopause, and how you can optimize your health and well-being during this phase of life with key lifestyle habits.​

  • ​Tuesday, November 12 from 12:00 PM to 1:00 PM ET
