Investigating media, political, policy and medical discourses, sociodemographic changes and market data, this interdisciplinary project is the first to 1) investigate the framing of menopause in UK public discourse (2002-2022); 2) uncover key factors contributing to menopause’s growing visibility and current framing(s); and 3) explore the implications of our current ‘menopause moment’.
