Solv Wellness® Introduces Menopause Made Clear™

In an important move for women's health, Solv Wellness® has unveiled Menopause Made Clear™, a digital toolkit designed to bridge significant gaps in menopause education for women and healthcare providers. Menopause remains one of the most misunderstood and inadequately addressed areas in healthcare, despite the fact that every woman will undergo this transition if she lives long enough.

The Need for Menopause Education

Over 55 million women in the United States are currently navigating menopause, and with approximately 1.3 million women entering this phase each year, the demand for support and information is more pressing than ever. Alarmingly, less than 30% of OB/GYN residency programs include dedicated training on menopause, and merely 7% of physicians in various specialties feel equipped to manage menopause effectively. This lack of trained professionals leaves many women to self-educate, often leading to misinformation, inadequate care, and unnecessary suffering.

Terri Wade, the CEO and Co-Founder of Solv Wellness, highlighted the headache surrounding menopause discussions: "When people learn that I'm the CEO of a healthcare company for women in midlife, the conversation inevitably turns to menopause—their symptoms, frustrations, and desire for trustworthy information." This sentiment sparked the creation of Menopause Made Clear, aimed at empowering women with the resources they need during this critical life phase.

Features of Menopause Made Clear™

Menopause Made Clear™ is uniquely designed to provide science-based resources that women, their families, and healthcare providers can trust. The toolkit includes:

• - Evidence-based Education: Clear and concise summaries of the latest research to debunk myths.
• - Symptom Solution Guidance: Information that helps identify both common and lesser-known symptoms, along with various treatment options, whether lifestyle-related, hormonal, or non-hormonal.
• - Provider Directory Tips: Practical advice on how to find menopause-trained clinicians for informed conversations about care.
• - Curated Learning Resources: Recommendations for books, documentaries, and podcasts from leading menopause experts for ongoing education.
• - Professional Support: Resources for clinicians with downloadable guidelines and educational support materials.

Dr. Corinne Menn, a menopause specialist, addressed the impact of barriers to care for women facing complex health challenges. She emphasized the importance of educational resources that provide clinical guidance and create a supportive environment instead of one driven by fear.

Bridging the Gap

Heather Quaile, DNP, WHNP-BC, AFN-C, MSCP, CSC, IF, FAANP, and founder of The SHOW Center for women's sexual health, stated, "Menopause Made Clear was built for women seeking clarity and for clinicians who want a credible resource they can share with patients." The initiative aims to elevate the standard of care by providing patients with the knowledge necessary to ask informed questions, which in turn enhances the quality of care they receive.

By continuously updating the toolkit with vetted information, Menopause Made Clear™ aspires to replace confusion with clarity, enabling women to feel supported and empowered during one of the most significant transitions in their lives.
