Video: Menopause support
You may already know that menopause is a normal, natural part of aging for women that typically occurs between the ages of 45 and 55. But did you know that symptoms can start when a woman is in her 30s? Perimenopause, the stage before menopause, can last a decade or more. Many of the symptoms are physical, such as hot flashes, sleep issues, hair loss or weight gain. But emotional symptoms are common too, such as difficulty concentrating, mood changes, anxiety and even depression.
Learn a bit about what to expect with this short video What is menopause? Then check out your Costco benefits for support throughout your menopause journey.
If you’re enrolled in an Aetna® medical plan, you can access virtual menopause care through Gennev.* And for pelvic pain, strengthening the pelvic floor or other pelvic health issues, get relief with virtual physical therapy through Omada Pelvic Health, offered to employees and dependents enrolled in a Costco medical plan.
Don’t miss the Resources for Living Here4U® perimenopause/menopause virtual peer support group. Led by a licensed clinician, these sessions are an opportunity to listen in, ask questions and connect with other women going through this experience.
