Improving Access to Menopause Therapies: A Discussion of the Current Landscape and Potential Solutions.
September 5, 2026 · Obstetrics and gynecology clinics of North America
Key takeaway
Black women often don't get the best menopause care, even though effective treatments like hormone therapy exist. This is due to many things, including personal beliefs and healthcare access issues. We need better solutions to ensure all Black women get the support they need during menopause.
Why this matters for our communities
Research in social determinants helps close long-standing gaps in how Black and African American families are studied, diagnosed, and cared for. Use findings like this one to start informed conversations with your care team — not as a substitute for personal medical advice.
