About us
Welcome to the Konenki Menopause Support Group!
In Japanese culture, "Konenki" signifies "renewal years" and "energy," reflecting a positive and empowering perspective on menopause as a time of personal growth and transformation.
Our group is dedicated to embracing this philosophy by providing a supportive community for women navigating the peri-menopausal and menopausal journey. We offer both online and in-person events, ensuring accessibility and convenience for all members. All events are free or low-cost, with any fees solely covering food or facility expenses.
We are proud to collaborate with the region's most highly-vetted menopause providers, who will share their expertise and offer educational sessions at our events.
Join us to connect with like-minded women, gain valuable insights, and celebrate this transformative phase of life together.
We look forward to welcoming you to our community!

Menopause Weight Change: What Actually Works
·OnlineOnlinePLEASE REGISTER THROUGH THIS FORM --> LINK HERE!
You know your body changed. You just cannot figure out why nothing you do seems to work anymore.
This free online event is for women in perimenopause, menopause, and postmenopause who are tired of being told to eat less and move more, and want to understand what is actually happening beneath the surface.Menopause weight change is layered. Estrogen, thyroid, cortisol, and for neurodivergent women, a whole dimension that standard care rarely touches.
Three vetted providers will each bring a different piece:
Hormones, thyroid, and medications | How these intersect, what can shift when you start hormone therapy, and the neurodivergent layer most protocols miss
Thyroid and nourishment | Why hypothyroidism and Hashimoto's so often overlap with menopause, and what genuinely helps
Strength and recovery | Building strength, working with insulin resistance and bone density, and the recovery load a midlife body carries
A moderated discussion with real answers, not another plan to try harder.
Thursday, June 25 | 6:30 - 7:30 PM ET Virtual (Zoom)
Free event by Konenki Menopause Solutions, because this is where you stop figuring it out alone.

Bone Health in Midlife: What's Actually Happening and What You Can Do
·OnlineOnlinePLEASE REGISTER THROUGH THIS FORM --> LINK HERE!
Most women don't start thinking about their bones until a doctor mentions a scan or a number that doesn't mean much without context. But bone loss in perimenopause often begins years before menopause is official, it happens quietly, and the window to do something about it is earlier than most women know.
This free, live conversation brings together three perspectives on bone health that rarely end up in the same room:
The biology of bone remodeling: how bone responds to strength and stress, why estrogen loss accelerates breakdown, and why strength training is one of the most evidence-backed things a midlife woman can do for her skeleton.
The clinical picture: what testing to ask for, what to track, and the risk factors most women are never told to consider, from thyroid function and gut health to cortisol and family history.
The herbal and nourishing side: nutritive herbs, nourishing infusions, and a wise woman tradition approach to remineralization that works alongside clinical care, not instead of it.
