Abstract
This article explores the evidence around the increased length and intensity of menopausal symptoms in women of colour when compared to white women, as observed in the SWAN study (Study of Women’s Health Across the Nation). This is a thought-provoking read. It discusses the aspects of life that can let health disparities arise between different ethnic communities, and that are required to be considered by healthcare professionals when working to support individuals.
