Support for every chapter: This health insurance is launching women-first health plans

For many women, menopause marks the start of a major life transition; one that comes with real symptoms, real emotional shifts, and all too often, a real lack of support. From night sweats and mood swings to the brain fog that no one warned you about, menopause can be overwhelming. But it doesn’t have to be.

That’s why its4women, already trusted by thousands of Irish women for quick and affordable online insurance, in partnership with Irish Life Health, is helping women to prioritise their health. They offer benefits to their customers tailored specifically for the menopause journey: from digital GP access and personalised consultations to nutritional advice, mental health support and more.

Because the truth is, women need more than sympathy during menopause – they need real, practical care.

Built around you

With the average age of menopause in Ireland around 51, and perimenopause starting for many in their 40s (or earlier), now is the time to be proactive about your health. That’s why its4women in partnership with Irish Life Health offer access to 20-minute video consultations with GPs who specialise in women’s health, the kind of conversations that focus on you.

Whether it’s hot flushes, sleep disruption, or changes to your mood or cycle, these tailored sessions help you feel seen and supported.

Hormones are just one part

Menopause is complex. You might be dealing with weight changes, dry skin, or the anxiety that creeps in at 3am. For those experiencing early menopause or premature ovarian insufficiency (before the age of 40), the challenges are even more acute: with higher risks of osteoporosis and heart disease. That’s why

its4women in partnership with Irish Life Health offer wider wellness and screening benefits, designed to support you at every stage.

And yes, if hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is right for you, your healthcare provider will help you explore that option too, safely and confidently.

Not sure if what you’re feeling is menopause, perimenopause, or something else entirely? Their health plans help you find clarity faster. And if you do need support, that care continues with access to dietitians, women’s health consultants and mental health specialists.

Your health shouldn’t be taboo

If you’ve ever felt like menopause was something you just had to “get on with”, you’re not alone. But thankfully, times are changing. With its4women in partnership with Irish Life Health, you’re not just getting insurance; you’re getting reassurance, built around the needs of real women.

Because this stage of life deserves to be talked about – and taken care of.
