Almost two-thirds of perimenopausal or menopausal women say menopause has caused them to experience physical or psychological symptoms that have “significantly” affected their day-to-day life, but 41% do not believe either is taken seriously.

That’s according to new research undertaken by Empathy on behalf of Boots Ireland, who surveyed more than 360 Irish women and found that some 30% of women don’t know what perimenopause is.
