Perimenopause & Policy - What's changing and what's next

​Perimenopause & Policy: What’s Changing and What’s Next
Featuring Claire Gill, CEO of the National Menopause Foundation, and Dr. Jayne Morgan, Cardiologist & Women’s Health Leader

​Following this month’s Congressional Briefing on World Perimenopause Day, join us for an essential conversation on the growing momentum around perimenopause and policy. September’s Perimenopause Awareness Month has been a landmark in raising visibility—from Capitol Hill to state legislatures—and now we’re asking: what comes next?

​Claire Gill and Dr. Jayne Morgan will reflect on the recent policy briefings and explore urgent questions shaping the future of women’s midlife health:

• ​Why women’s health research still receives less than 10% of NIH funding—and the critical knowledge gaps this creates.

• ​What we still don’t know about heart disease in women, and why more targeted research is urgently needed.

• ​How state-level legislation and national resolutions are paving the way for change.

• ​Practical ways health experts and women themselves can get involved in advocacy, from grassroots campaigns to national policy initiatives.

​This conversation goes beyond statistics—it’s about power, policy, and the lived realities of women in midlife. Whether you’re a health professional, advocate, or someone navigating perimenopause yourself, you’ll leave with a clearer sense of where change is happening and how you can be part of it.
