Alpro Launches Subsidised RM1 Ferritin Checks to Help Women Understand, Prepare and Live Well Through the Transition to Menopause

Alpro Pharmacy in Malaysia has launched a health initiative called 'Me. NO PAUSE' aimed at helping women better understand and manage the transition to menopause. As part of this program, eligible women can get a subsidized ferritin blood test for RM1, significantly lower than the usual RM35. This initiative targets women aged 35 and older who may be experiencing symptoms like fatigue, brain fog, hair loss, or brittle nails, which could indicate low iron levels. The goal is to raise awareness about the importance of ferritin checks, which assess iron stores and can detect iron deficiency before it develops into anemia. The initiative highlights that many women dismiss these symptoms as stress or aging but encourages them to consult healthcare professionals for proper evaluation.
