About OncoMenopause™ and the OncoMenopause Consortium®
Education at the Intersection of Cancer Survivorship, Menopause, and Midlife Women’s Health
A Community Built for Survivors and Clinicians Alike
OncoMenopause™ is a virtual education platform focused on the intersection of cancer survivorship, menopause, and midlife women’s health.
Advanced through the OncoMenopause Consortium®, a HERmedicine education initiative, OncoMenopause™ provides virtual education, in-person CME courses, seminars, workshops, lectures, case-based learning, and educational resources for clinicians, survivHERs, and others committed to improving care for women living beyond cancer.
HERmedicine is a national 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to advancing evidence-based women’s health through education, collaboration, and community.
Why OncoMenopause Matters
The number of cancer survivors continues to grow, including many women diagnosed at younger ages who will live for decades beyond their cancer diagnosis.
Yet too many women encounter fragmented care and limited guidance when it comes to menopause symptoms, sexual health, genitourinary syndrome of menopause, bone health, cardiovascular risk, metabolic health, cognition, sleep, quality of life, and long-term survivorship health.
For many women, cancer treatment accelerates or intensifies menopause through chemotherapy, endocrine therapy, ovarian suppression, surgery, or premature ovarian insufficiency. At the same time, menopause is a major physiologic transition that affects nearly every aspect of long-term health.
Cancer survivors often carry additional layers of complexity, including recurrence risk, treatment-related toxicities, genetic risk, comorbid disease, endocrine therapy symptoms, and uncertainty around treatment options. These issues cannot be fully addressed within traditional specialty silos.
OncoMenopause™ was created to help close this gap.
Our Mission
The mission of the OncoMenopause Consortium® is to advance the care of women living beyond cancer by providing free, evidence-based education, building multidisciplinary clinical community, and fostering collaboration among clinicians and survivHERs navigating menopause and midlife health after cancer.
We are committed to equipping clinicians with practical education, supporting survivors with trusted information, and improving care through shared expertise, thoughtful dialogue, and evidence-informed decision-making.
Our Multidisciplinary Community
OncoMenopause™ brings together clinicians across disciplines, including medical oncology, internal medicine, primary care, gynecology, menopause medicine, endocrinology, sexual health, cardiology, psychiatry, survivorship medicine, genetics, nursing, pharmacy, psychology, and allied health.
We also center the voices of individuals with lived survivorship experience, whose perspectives help shape education, priorities, and the real-world relevance of this work.
Through expert-led education, case-based discussion, professional collaboration, and community, the OncoMenopause Consortium® helps clinicians and survivHERs navigate difficult and nuanced questions, including:
Management of vasomotor symptoms after cancer
Genitourinary syndrome of menopause and sexual health after cancer treatment
Menopausal hormone therapy decision-making after cancer
Endocrine therapy-related symptoms and quality-of-life concerns
Long-term cardiovascular, metabolic, bone, cognitive, and sexual health
Risk stratification and shared decision-making in women with competing risks
Evidence gaps, misinformation, and areas where guidance remains limited or evolving
Free Education and Expanded Learning
The OncoMenopause Consortium® is committed to making high-quality education accessible.
Clinicians, survivHERs, and anyone interested in being part of the OncoMenopause™ community can participate in free virtual educational programming, including our Wednesday evening education sessions led by national multidisciplinary experts.
For those seeking deeper learning and ongoing connection, optional paid membership provides expanded access to recorded education, member-only programming, case-based discussion, Tumor Board participation, and opportunities to help shape the future direction of this shared effort.
Our Vision
We envision a future where every woman affected by cancer has access to expert, individualized menopause and midlife health care as part of long-term survivorship.
That care should be grounded in evidence, informed by her cancer history and personal values, and supported by clinicians who are prepared to collaborate across disciplines.
Cancer survivorship is not only about surveillance.
It is about helping women live well beyond cancer.
