Enter your symptoms and health history above. This screener is designed to help you understand where you stand in the menopausal transition and identify topics to discuss with your provider — it is not a diagnostic tool. Bring your results to your next appointment.
Menopause Care in the USA — Finding the Right Provider
Menopause management in the USA is often inadequate — a 2023 NAMS survey found that 70% of women felt their menopause symptoms were not taken seriously by their primary care provider. The North American Menopause Society (NAMS) maintains a directory of Certified Menopause Practitioners (NCMP) at menopause.org. Telehealth menopause providers (Midi Health, Gennev, Alloy Health) now serve all 50 US states and are increasingly covered by insurance. HRT costs range from $30–$100/month for body-identical options; most FDA-approved HRT is covered by US insurance.
When to Seek Professional Guidance in the USA
Seek care if: hot flashes or night sweats are disrupting sleep or daily function; you're experiencing brain fog, mood changes, or anxiety; your symptoms began before age 45 (may indicate premature ovarian insufficiency); you have postmenopausal bleeding (always requires evaluation); or you want to discuss HRT, bone density screening (DEXA scan), or cardiovascular risk factors.
