Why are we doing this survey?
Because menopause doesn’t just affect women -  it affects couples, and impacts families. . Many men are quietly struggling too, living through the change alongside their partners, often confused, frustrated, and unsupported.

At The Forte Group, we’re committed to transforming how society sees women's health -  and that includes men’s mental health. We care because we know the emotional toll is real, and most men have never been invited into the conversation.

This survey helps us understand what you're experiencing, so we can build the right tools, support, and education -  for both of you. And if help is out there for your partner - to ease her symptoms, lift her mood, and bring her back to herself - why wouldn’t you want to be part of that? 

We know there are a lot of good men out there - men who care, who listen, who want to understand.
Men with empathy, patience, and a genuine desire to help. But real help starts with one thing: knowledge.

This survey is your first step.
Take 5 minutes. Make sense of the chaos. Support her better — and support yourself too.

Many women feel unseen. Many men feel helpless.

5-Minute Q&A.


She’s not irrational - she’s in hormonal chaos. He’s not ignoring her - he’s just never been shown how to help.


Let’s stop blaming each other and start learning, together.
