Brief Summary:
Menopause transition occurs naturally for women aged 45-55 In addition to the hormone changes there are often changes in other areas of life including low mood anxiety brain fog and embarrassment Some people may not be eligible for or want to receive hormone replacement therapy therefore psychological treatments for menopause have been investigated There is growing evidence for the use of Compassionate Mind Training CMT CMT aims to reduce feelings of self-criticism and shame which are commonly reported by adults experiencing the menopause by helping individuals to take better care of themselves known as self-compassion Findings show menopausal individuals who are more self-critical may be more vulnerable to difficulties during menopause Therefore CMT could help manage this CMT improves self-compassion and reduces depressive symptoms with group formats found to be more effective than individual or self-help A previous study of online self-help CMT for the menopause received positive feedback for the therapy and people improved in several areas including self-compassion Clearly there could be benefits to offering CMT as a treatment for menopause Given that group CMT is effective in other populations and groups are more economical and practical for the NHS this study is interested in looking at the impact of group CMT on menopause
