About — Perimenopause Symposium

Baltimore · September 2026

The conversation perimenopause care has been waiting for.


Perimenopause affects every woman. Yet it remains one of the most underfunded, under-researched, and misunderstood phases of a woman's life. Across specialties, formal training is lacking, clinical guidelines are inconsistent, and patients are falling through the cracks.

That changes in September 2026.

The Perimenopause Symposium is the world's first multidisciplinary CME/CE symposium dedicated entirely to perimenopause — bringing together 200+ clinicians across 10+ specialties for one full day of evidence-based education, honest clinical conversation, and collaborative care-building.

What makes it different

No other event brings together 10+ clinical disciplines around a single conversation. The Perimenopause Symposium creates a shared clinical language across every specialty treating these patients — because perimenopause doesn't stay in one lane, and neither should its care. Every session is grounded in 500,000+ real patient insights from the Perry community. This isn't a textbook curriculum — it's what your patients are actually experiencing.
