Malaysian Menopause Society

Menopause is an inevitable stage in a woman’s life, marking the end of her reproductive years and ushering in a host of physical and emotional changes. While it is a universal experience, each woman’s journey through menopause is unique.

In Malaysia, women have access to invaluable support and resources through the Malaysian Menopause Society. MMS plays a crucial role in helping women transition through this transformative phase of life with grace and confidence. Our key pillars include:

Our Key Pillars

Public Education

Menopause has often been shrouded in stigma and misconceptions. MMS actively breaks these barriers by fostering open and honest conversations about menopause. Health talks and seminars are held throughout the year to disseminate accurate information about menopause, its symptoms, and potential treatment options. These events are conducted by leading experts in the field and are open to both healthcare professionals and the general public.

MMS Support Group (MSG)

Menopause can be a daunting experience, and sharing it with others who are going through the same phase can be immensely comforting. MMS facilitates support groups where women can connect, share experiences, and seek guidance from trained healthcare experts.

Research and Publications

The society actively engages in research on various aspects of menopause, providing valuable insights into its impact on women's health in Malaysia. Additionally, MMS publishes informative materials, including brochures and books, to educate women about menopause-related issues.

Continuous Medical Education (CME)

Recognizing the importance of healthcare providers being well-informed about menopause, MMS conducts training programmes and workshops for doctors, nurses, and other medical professionals. This helps ensure that women receive the best possible care during this phase of life.
