Not Giving Up

Dr. Nasreen Hag Yahiya | Dr. Michal Ovadia

This project aims to create a menopause clinic for Arab women in Taybeh. The clinic's goal is to provide counseling and treatment for women in menopause, whether or not they experience symptoms. It will offer support for related issues like pelvic floor dysfunction and sexual health, especially for women who cannot use hormonal treatments or need alternative therapies. Additionally, the clinic will target women with early menopause (before age 35).

.In Arabic, the menopause stage is called “the age of despair” and many women avoid seeking medical assistance due to embarrassment and a lack of knowledge and awareness. In addition to opening the clinic, our goal is to improve women's health awareness in the Arab sector through workshops and lectures, open to both the public and medical professionals.
