How the Wellness Industry Hijacked Midlife for Profit"},"content":{"rendered":"\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is Menowashing?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMenowashing\u201d describes the marketing practice of rebranding generic wellness or beauty products as menopause-specific, often with inflated prices, misleading claims, and no medical evidence. It\u2019s the latest iteration of the pink tax, and it\u2019s capitalising on vulnerability, rather than delivering genuine solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the menopause market forecasted to surpass <strong>$24 billion globally by 2030<\/strong> [1], businesses are racing to capitalise. But as products multiply, so do the pseudoscientific claims\u2014and women are left navigating a sea of expensive fluff wrapped in &#8220;empowerment&#8221; language.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s not innovation. It\u2019s exploitation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Examples of Menowashing in Action<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\ud83d\udd39 <strong>Moisturiser \u2192 &#8220;Hormone-Balancing Cream&#8221;<\/strong><br>There is no cosmetic product that can \u201cbalance your hormones.\u201d If a cream could impact your oestrogen levels, it would be classified and regulated as a medicine. However, most of these are generic moisturisers, repackaged and relabeled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\ud83d\udd39 <strong>Vitamins \u2192 \u201cMenopause Support\u201d Supplements<\/strong><br>Dr Jen Gunter, OB\/GYN and author of <em>The Menopause Manifesto<\/em>, reviewed top-selling menopause supplements on Amazon. Her findings?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cNone contained ingredients recommended by The Menopause Society. Some contained ingredients associated with liver injury.\u201d [2]<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>\ud83d\udd39 <strong>Fans and Cool Pads \u2192 &#8220;Flush Relief Systems&#8221;<\/strong><br>A cold compress or fan is a helpful comfort aid. Calling it a &#8220;flush management system&#8221; and tripling the price? That\u2019s not healthcare. That\u2019s a hustle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\ud83d\udd39 <strong>Soap \u2192 \u201cIntimate Cleanser\u201d<\/strong><br>The <strong>Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists (RCOG)<\/strong> clearly states:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cDo not use soap or perfumed washes on your vulva. Just warm water is enough.\u201d [3]<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Products marketed for &#8220;vulval hygiene&#8221; or &#8220;feminine freshness&#8221; can disrupt the natural pH, irritate skin, and worsen symptoms like dryness or itching. They don&#8217;t solve the problem\u2014they often <em>cause<\/em> it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Cost of Confusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Menowashing isn\u2019t just a wallet issue\u2014it\u2019s a health issue. Here\u2019s why:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>It delays evidence-based care.<\/strong> Women may turn to over-the-counter gimmicks instead of seeking medical advice, missing out on effective interventions like HRT, CBT, or physiotherapy.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>It erodes trust.<\/strong> When products marketed as \u201crelief\u201d don\u2019t work\u2014or worse, cause irritation or side effects\u2014women become understandably cynical about all options, including the valid ones.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>It reinforces shame.<\/strong> \u201cIntimate washes\u201d and \u201cvaginal deodorants\u201d suggest that something about you is unclean or needs fixing. This fuels stigma rather than solving symptoms.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Menowashing: Not Just in Products \u2014 But in Policy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s not just moisturisers and supplements. \u201cMenowashing\u201d has also crept into the workplace and policy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>British-Norwegian journalist and menopause campaigner <strong>Mariella Frostrup<\/strong> recently accused the UK government of menowashing\u2014calling out performative actions that <em>look<\/em> supportive but fail to deliver real change. Frostrup, chair of Menopause Mandate, argued that:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cThe then-government could be \u2018meno-washing\u2019 rather than taking real action on menopause and women\u2019s rights.\u201d [4]<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>The term is now used in employment law. As <strong>Kate Palmer<\/strong>, employment services director at Peninsula, explains:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cMeno-washing is when an employer makes superficial promises so that they appear to support women experiencing the menopause when, in reality, they do not follow through.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>David Ward<\/strong>, partner at Blacks Solicitors, highlights the commercial dimension:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cCompanies will use the menopause as a marketing strategy&#8230; it often involves using language or imagery that suggests genuine care&#8230; while the actual products may not effectively address those needs or may overpromise results.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>And perhaps the most telling quote of all comes from <strong>Dr Sarah Berry<\/strong>, chief scientist at the ZOE nutrition project:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cIf you stick the word &#8216;meno&#8217; in front of the product, you can double the price and sell more.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">So, What <em>Does<\/em> Help?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s talk about what\u2019s actually backed by clinical research:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\ud83d\udc49 <strong>HRT (Hormone Replacement Therapy)<\/strong><br>When appropriate, HRT remains the most effective treatment for symptoms like hot flushes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, and low mood. It also helps reduce long-term risks like osteoporosis.<br>(NHS: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nhs.uk\/conditions\/menopause\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Menopause Treatment<\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\ud83d\udc49 <strong>Targeted pelvic floor and core rehab<\/strong><br>Changes to pelvic health in perimenopause and menopause\u2014like prolapse symptoms, incontinence, or pain\u2014are common. Rehab that\u2019s clinically validated (like MUTU) can make a measurable difference.<br>(<a href=\"https:\/\/mutusystem.com\/en-uk\/mutu-clinical-evidence\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">MUTU Clinical Evidence<\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\ud83d\udc49 <strong>Strength training and movement<\/strong><br>Preserves muscle mass, improves metabolism, supports mental health, and reduces bone density loss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\ud83d\udc49 <strong>Food that supports, not restricts<\/strong><br>Nutritional basics matter: adequate protein, fibre, calcium, and healthy fats. You don\u2019t need a labelled \u201cmenopause bar\u201d to eat well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\ud83d\udc49 <strong>Mental health support and community<\/strong><br>CBT has been shown to help with hot flushes and sleep disturbances. Connection with others experiencing the same transition is powerful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Spot Menowashing<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Ask these 3 questions before you buy:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Would I use this if it didn\u2019t say \u2018menopause\u2019?<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Is the claim backed by scientific evidence, or just feel-good copywriting?<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Is this about solving a problem or creating one?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">MUTU\u2019s Commitment<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At MUTU, we don\u2019t sell gimmicks.
