nib launches tool to support women through menopause

nib meno care has been created in partnership with renowned menopause specialist Dr Linda Dear, founder of Menodoctor.

The programme offers nib members expert advice and practical resources on everything from lifestyle strategies and natural therapies to information about available medical options, helping women take charge of their hormonal health and reduce potential long-term risks.

Menopause is a significant life stage that impacts both physical and mental health, yet, according to Dr Dear’s 2023 survey of 4288 women across New Zealand, 64% did not know the menopause symptoms they were experiencing were due to menopause.

As a certified menopause practitioner with years of experience, Dr Dear has seen first-hand how the right education tools and support can transform women’s health. Through this new partnership with nib, she intends to extend that support and help women navigate their health journeys.
