Let’s Speak about Menopause

By 2025, more than 1 billion women will be going through the menopause transition. And the physical and emotional impact on their lives is significant. On average, a woman suffers 6.8 different conditions each year. The most prevalent conditions include: Hot flashes and night-sweats, vaginal dryness, incontinence, multi-fluids, abundant irregular periods, mood swings and more.

Menopause is still a taboo, in some parts of the world associated with a disease or a problem and usually referred to with sarcasm. Essity has been successfully supporting women during this life stage with feminine care, incontinence products and educational campaigns.

Essity is committed to an open dialogue on menopause and to break the stigma around it. In anticipation of World Menopause Day on October 18, Essity and its brands support informative content and authentic campaigns in order to provide advices and resources to help navigate this stage of life.
