Bill Summary
AN ACT to amend the public health law, in relation to directing the department of health to establish and maintain a menopause informational and resource webpage on the department website
AI Summary
This bill directs the New York State Department of Health to create and maintain a comprehensive online resource about menopause within 180 days of the law's effective date. The webpage will provide informational materials covering three key areas: (1) the stages of menopause, which include perimenopause (the transitional period before menopause), menopause itself, and postmenopause; (2) treatment and management options for these stages; and (3) symptoms and physical complications associated with each stage. By mandating this resource, the bill aims to improve public understanding and awareness of menopause, helping individuals better navigate this significant life transition by providing accessible, authoritative information directly from the state health department.
