#JumpForMenopause: Science&Humans Spreads its Wings for Over 100 Million Women Across North America During Menopause Awareness Month this October

Science&Humans (S&H) is a first-of-its-kind digital platform transforming how individuals fulfill their hormone health, longevity and wellness needs for individuals living with hormone imbalances in North America.

Science&Humans is hosting a major campaign in support of menopause awareness. For the month of October - Menopause Awareness Month - and will be deploying skydivers at various drop zones around North America under the banner "JumpForMenopause" to raise awareness, combat stigma, and provide access to treatment options. The team of skydivers at each 'drop' throughout October will be led by Chris Serrano, who is an award-winning creative director and skydiving athlete based in Florida.

The "JumpForMenopause" campaign was developed because of menopause’s staggering effect on women both personally and professionally. It is currently estimated that one-quarter of Canada's 19-million-person workforce are women over the age of 40. 10% of these women will be forced out of the workplace because their menopause symptoms are debilitating, leaving senior positions empty and taking their valuable knowledge and experience with them. Of the women who stay and are contemplating leaving, 74% feel their employer is not supportive or doesn't know if their employer will provide enough support to help them manage this unavoidable stage of life.

S&H Co-Founder and COO, Hira Siddiqui, expresses, "Women spend roughly one-third of their lives navigating the unique challenges of menopause-a journey often shrouded in taboo and silence. As a millennial, I'm keenly aware that my generation is on the brink of this milestone, facing a glaring lack of preparedness and a cloud of misinformation. Our mission is clear: to offer unwavering support and empower women, ensuring they not only endure but thrive during this decade-long journey, guided by evidence-based solutions."

Corporations interested in joining "JumpForMenopause" will become a Women's Health Accredited Employer. As an accredited employer, entities will receive a free HR toolkit, menopause education sessions and assistance with navigating access to care to create an inclusive and informed workplace culture.
