This position statement from the European Menopause and Andropause Society (EMAS) provides a care pathway for the maintenance of women’s health during and after the menopause. It is designed for use by all those involved in women’s health. It covers assessment, screening for diseases in later life, treatment and follow-up. Strategies need to be optimised to maintain postreproductive health, in part because of increased longevity. They encompass optimising diet and lifestyle, menopausal hormone therapy and non-estrogen-based treatment options for climacteric symptoms and skeletal conservation, personalised to individual needs.
