Women’s Health: Key Considerations Across the Lifespan From Reproduction to Menopause
Women’s health is a lifelong journey that evolves through distinct stages—from adolescence and reproductive years to perimenopause, menopause, postmenopause, and beyond—and HR leaders in SMBs play a key role in supporting employees through each phase.
This session highlights the unique health considerations women face, including reproductive and sexual health, pregnancy and prenatal care, perimenopause and menopause symptom management, and the importance of bone, heart, and mental health as women age. We’ll explore preventive care practices such as screenings, vaccinations, and lifestyle interventions, while also addressing common conditions like breast cancer, osteoporosis, and cardiovascular disease. Just as critical, we’ll discuss the role of mental health, self-care, and social support in overall well-being.
By understanding women’s health across the lifespan, organizations can better foster supportive policies, resources, and workplace cultures that empower women to thrive personally and professionally.
