Menopause and Cancer CIC

Menopause and Cancer is the only non-profit supporting cancer survivors through treatment-induced menopause. We help people of all ages, diagnoses, and symptoms whose menopause is affected by cancer treatment. Our goal is to share evidence-based information that empowers individuals to manage their menopause symptoms effectively.

OUR MISSION
It is our mission to ensure every cancer patient receives the information and support they need to navigate menopause after cancer. We bring together a community of experts with our community of patients to connect, share and educate.

THE PROBLEM
With cancer treatment often triggering menopause, 40% of women under 40 and 70%-90% of women over 40 enter permanent menopause as a result of their treatment.

Many women say that navigating menopause after cancer feels harder than chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and surgery altogether.

In a recent survey, 92% of women felt isolated in their experiences of menopause and cancer before finding the community, 78% did not receive adequate information on the impact that cancer treatment would have on their menopause, fertility and hormone health, and 87% found their menopause symptoms had a significant impact on their quality of life.

WHAT WE DO
We understand that the a huge void in menopause care for cancer patients, and that the NHS is overstretched, so we have worked hard to ensure that through our services, we are able to support both patients and healthcare professionals.

Support services we offer include: expert-led in-person and online workshops, written resources, weekly podcast episodes, specialist menopause clinic, retreats, community connection sessions and CPD courses. 

By working closely with British Menopause Society experts, the NHS, other charities such as Macmillan, Breast Cancer Now, and Maggie’s, and our wonderful team of nationwide volunteers, we have been able to reach and support more people in menopause after cancer.

Menopause after cancer can be confusing and overwhelming&nbsp;— especially when it comes to knowing how best to manage your symptoms through diet. One of the most common questions we hear is:&nbsp;“How should I be eating in menopause after cancer?” and "Can by diet help with my symptom management?" ...and the answer is yet! In this workshop, we’re joined by nutritionist&nbsp;Julie Webb, an expert in cancer and menopause nutrition. Julie will walk you through her&nbsp;top tips for managing inflammation through food, share&nbsp;practical advice, and reveal some of her&nbsp;favourite everyday strategies&nbsp;to help support your health and wellbeing. This is a great opportunity to hear from an expert and&nbsp;ask those burning questions, like:<ul><li>Can I improve my symptoms through diet?</li><li>Is there such a thing as a menopause diet?</li><li>Are there supplements I should consider before, during, or after menopause?</li><li>What can I eat to help ease symptoms like dry eye, fatigue, palpitations, flushing, joint pain, or anxiety?</li><li>What foods help to reduce inflammation?</li></ul> As always, tickets are free; however, if you are in a position to leave a donation, this is always massively appreciated and makes the world of a difference in helping us host more events and workshops to support you like this!
