Mixed methods research to support the development of an evidence-based intervention for cognitive symptoms in menopause transition

Listen to this summary

The authors aimed to explore the cognitive difficulties experienced by women during the menopause transition and to identify preferences for a psychosocial intervention to address these issues. Through a mixed-methods approach involving an online survey and focus groups, they found that a significant majority of participants reported bothersome cognitive difficulties and expressed interest in a new intervention that would include psychoeducation and peer support. The study highlights the need for a tailored psychosocial intervention and suggests further research to assess its feasibility and effectiveness.
