Rural Women Face Greater Challenges in Perimenopause


 

Call for Training

Dr. Llaneza and her research team emphasized the need for further research on new drugs for controlling vasomotor symptoms, expressing their interest in conducting additional studies. “We would like to conduct a study on the use of these therapies in perimenopausal and postmenopausal women residing in rural areas.

“We believe that our data may be of interest to healthcare authorities seeking to combat population exodus in rural areas,” they wrote. In addition, they recommended additional training for rural primary care physicians on perimenopause and menopause topics regarding prevention, management, and access, as well as further awareness about preventing depressive symptoms in this population.

Dr. Llaneza declared that she has no relevant financial relationships.
