Meno Medicine Essentials™
A structured, evidence-based lecture series covering every major domain of menopause medicine. Build clinical confidence with CME content designed for Physicians, NPs, CNMs, and PAs.
Menopause medicine has changed. The evidence is rapidly evolving, the questions are more complex, and your patients deserve a clinician who can meet them there.
Meno Medicine Essentials is a focused, clinician-to-clinician deep dive into the foundational evidence across every major domain of menopause medicine — built for the curious, the committed, and the clinician who knows that getting better never really stops.
Whether you're working toward the MSCP certification or simply ready to gain confidence in caring for your midlife patients — this is where you start.
The University of Vermont designates this enduring material a maximum of 14.0 AMA PRA Category 1 credit(s)™ and has reviewed this program as acceptable for up to 14.0 Nursing Contact Hours.
The Robert Larner College of Medicine at the University of Vermont is authorized by AAPA to award up to 14.0 AAPA Category 1 CME credits, and this course has been approved for 14.0 hours of pharmacy continuing education credit.
For every clinician who cares for midlife women and people experiencing menopause.
I felt it too — that moment of realizing how much there was to know, and how little of our training had prepared us for it. That's why this exists.
Meno Medicine Essentials is built around the foundational evidence in menopause medicine, organized using the MSCP blueprint as a structural framework — not because the exam is the point, but because it's a rigorous map of what every clinician in this space should understand.
The exam isn't the finish line. It's the starting line.
Menopause medicine is complex and evolving, and the best thing good teaching can do is make the dense topics more approachable, the evidence clearer, and the learning — genuinely exciting.
✓ Clinicians who are genuinely curious about midlife women's health — and know there's always more to learn
✓ Anyone drawn to the complexity of menopause medicine and hungry for a clearer foundation
✓ Providers preparing for the MSCP certification exam
Why Meno Medicine Essentials?

Video-First.

Built Around What Matters.
Most clinicians did not receive formal training in menopause medicine. The MSCP blueprint gives us a guide to the knowledge base. This series closes the gap — whether you plan to sit the exam or not.
