An estimated 1.1 billion people worldwide will have experienced menopause by 2025. Physical and emotional symptoms can last for years and significantly disrupt daily life — but are rarely discussed at work, at home, or even at the doctor’s office. To address this, we’re proud to share that Carrot is partnering with Medical Prime (UK), a leading specialist menopause clinic in London, to help more women experiencing perimenopause and menopause access high-quality care. Our members in the UK can use their Carrot benefit with Medical Prime. In celebration of #MenopauseAwarenessMonth, Oana Gharbi, EMEA Partnership Lead at Carrot, and Dr Theodora Kalentzi, Founder of Medical Prime, had the pleasure of meeting with Chris Hayward, Head of Policy, City of London Corporation within the Guildhall. Thank you to Medical Prime and the City of London for continuing to spread awareness about menopause and its impact on women in the workplace. #menopause #menopauseawareness #employeebenefits
