A scoping review of the literature on Indigenous women’s experiences and understandings of menopause to identify themes and gaps across the contemporary literature.

Description

Most women at some time in their life will experience menopause. Recent commentaries, however, have highlighted that menopause is a neglected area of both research and health- related support; this being especially the case for ethnic minorities and Indigenous women. Coupled with the World Health Organization’s Global Plan of Action on Indigenous Health, which calls for global attention to the health of Indigenous Peoples, this makes it timely to undertake a scoping review of the literature on Indigenous women’s experiences and understandings of menopause to identify themes and gaps across the contemporary literature.
