A YouGov poll commissioned by the Royal College of Psychiatrists found that only 28% of UK women know menopause can trigger new mental illness, despite perimenopausal women being twice as likely to develop bipolar disorder and 30% more likely to develop clinical depression. The RCPsych has launched a position statement calling for improved awareness, mandatory medical training on menopause and mental health, and workplace policies addressing the condition's mental health impacts.
