Description
Jennifer Sauer and co-authors report a 2023 AARP research project on the economic cost of menopause. Many women pay a lot to ease symptoms like hot flashes, night sweats, brain fog, and mood swings. Some cut work hours or leave jobs when symptoms grow severe. The project set out to measure that burden.
The first phase held six online focus groups with US women aged forty and older. Groups were split by stage of the transition, from early change to post-menopause. Themes matched past research: symptoms disrupt daily life, and treatments do not always help. Later phases of the project build on these talks with wider surveys.
