Menopause Management Study Track
Evaluate and manage patients through perimenopause, menopause, and postmenopause with a structured approach to symptoms, treatment options, and long-term health risks.
What this track covers
This track covers the physiology of the menopausal transition and the clinical reasoning needed to assess vasomotor symptoms, genitourinary syndrome of menopause, sleep and mood changes, and cognitive complaints. It also addresses long-term considerations including bone health and cardiovascular risk that shape ongoing management decisions.
What you will practice
- Distinguish perimenopause, menopause, and postmenopause based on clinical presentation
- Assess vasomotor symptoms, GSM, sleep disruption, and mood changes systematically
- Compare hormonal and non-hormonal treatment approaches for a given patient profile
- Weigh individual risk factors, including breast cancer, cardiovascular, and VTE history, before selecting therapy
- Counsel on long-term bone and cardiovascular health alongside symptom management
Simulator scenario
A perimenopausal patient presents with vasomotor symptoms and a personal history that raises questions about treatment eligibility, requiring risk assessment and a shared treatment decision.
Board question topics
- Staging the menopausal transition
- Risk stratification before starting hormone therapy
- Non-hormonal symptom management options
- Long-term bone and cardiovascular considerations
