Menopause care for diverse communities: a qualitative study of GP clinician experiences
HCPs believed that differences in levels of menopause care across diverse populations that experienced health inequalities reflected differing demands from communities, as well as a lack of time and funding to provide targeted community-based education on menopause and its treatment. Future work to improve menopause care should include additional research as well as culturally sensitive and targeted health education for patients and HCPs.
