Why is HRT access failing too many women?

Black Professionals in Life Sciences (BPLS), in partnership with Lucid Group, invites you to a vital conversation grounded in data and lived experience. A diverse panel of experts will unpack the drivers of unequal menopause care and explore how we can unite for equity.

The gap widens further when socioeconomic factors are considered.

What roles do ethnicity, socioeconomic status, healthcare systems, and cultural competence play in shaping access to menopause care, and how can the Life Sciences community drive change?
