Prisma Health is inviting the community to attend two educational women's health events this October.
The events will feature documentary film screenings, expert-led panel discussions and networking receptions, with proceeds benefiting Prisma Health foundations that support community health initiatives.
Perimenopause event scheduled in Greenville
On Tuesday, Oct. 20, Prisma Health will host a reception, screening of The M Factor 2: Before the Pause and expert-led panel discussion focused on perimenopause and the physical, emotional and cognitive changes women may experience during this stage of life.
Perimenopause affects millions of women, yet many feel unprepared for symptoms such as hot flashes, brain fog and mood changes. The event aims to help women better understand perimenopause and take an active role in managing their health.
The event will take place from 6–8:30 p.m. at Seratonic Venue & Lounge, 315 S. Main Street, Greenville, SC 29601.
Tickets are $20 and include hors d'oeuvres and beverages during the opening reception. Proceeds will benefit the Prisma Health Upstate Foundation, which supports programs and initiatives that advance the health and well-being of communities across the Upstate.
