An Act To Provide Comprehensive Perimenopause And Menopause Education
This bill requires Maine's Department of Health and Human Services to create educational materials about perimenopause and menopause. It directs the department to partner with healthcare providers (like OB/GYNs) and community health programs to develop both digital and physical resources. The materials will explain symptoms, treatments, when to seek care, the biological process, and how to discuss these changes with others. These resources will specifically target people who menstruate and are experiencing perimenopause or menopause.
