Kræftens Bekæmpelse launches menopause support app

Kræftens Bekæmpelse has launched 'meno', a new mobile application designed to provide women with evidence-based information and support during menopause. The app aims to address a significant gap in health resources, as research indicates that 97 percent of women in Denmark experience symptoms during this life stage, with 83 percent reporting moderate to severe symptoms.

In addition to providing knowledge, the app allows users to track daily symptoms and lifestyle habits to gain better insight into their health. The initiative focuses on helping women make informed lifestyle choices—such as improved nutrition, regular strength training, and reduced alcohol consumption—to manage menopause symptoms and reduce the risk of lifestyle-related cancers.

The development of 'meno' follows several years of research, user surveys, and collaboration with experts in gynecology, mental health, and cancer prevention.
