  • Understanding women's information needs regarding menopause is crucial for effective health management.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To identify the specific needs of women concerning learning about menopause.
  • To explore how race and education level influence access to menopause information.
  • To understand preferred learning methods for menopause education among diverse groups of women.

Main Methods:

  • An anonymous 20-question survey was distributed to 116 women during outreach programs.

  • Data analysis involved stratifying responses by race and educational attainment.
  • Statistical methods were used to assess associations between variables.

    • Main Results:

    • A significant link exists between race, education level, and access to menopause information.
    • African American women and those with less than a college education faced double the risk of lacking information sources.
    • Women without an information source reported lower perceived knowledge of menopause, with varied preferences for learning methods across different groups.

    Conclusions:

    • Race and education level significantly impact women's ability to access menopause information.
    • Readily available and tailored information is essential to improve women's understanding of menopausal health.
    • Educational programs should be designed to cater to the diverse learning preferences of adult women.
