Who we are
Hellenic Menopause Society was founded in June 2019. It is the only nonprofit organization in Greece dedicated to promoting the health and quality of life of all people, and especially middle-aged women, through understanding menopause and healthy aging.
Menopause is perhaps the most important moment in a woman’s life. All women who are lucky enough to live and complete their productive life cycle in the same or different way will go into maturity. The peri-menopausal period signifies huge changes in the life and functioning of the entire family. The body, the mood, the perception, the relationships, the dreams and the expectations are redefined.
With the establishment of the Hellenic Menopause Society, a pole of search and, above all, support is created for all those involved in these changes. We aspire to address and solve Problems with aesthetics, health, wellness and emotions, through the functioning of the Society.
Hellenic Menopause Society aims to inform its members and the general public as well as to raise the awareness of health professionals about issues related to menopause and to provide support and assistance to women experiencing emotional and / or physical symptoms caused by menopause.
Member can become anyone and everyone interested in knowing and understanding the symptoms and changes of this period of life.
