Menopause will now be included in NHS health checks

This is a welcome move, but it is essential that women from socially deprived and ethnically diverse communities, who are currently least likely to receive adequate care, are fully included in these checks

We have also had an editorial published in BMJ Medicine www.bmj.com/content/390/... which highlights the importance of our work in improving knowledge about hormone replacement therapy and menopause care

Black African women are almost 6x less likely to get HRT than white women in England – and women in the most deprived areas are half as likely as those in the most affluent.

Major Oxford study of 2m women reveals stark inequalities in menopause care.

I am delighted that our paper
"Inequalities in hormone replacement therapy prescribing in UK primary care: population based cohort study" was published in BMJ Medicine today
