Perimenopause is a natural but often challenging transition in a woman’s life, marked by hormonal changes that may lead to symptoms like mood swings, anxiety, sleep problems, and hot flashes. Many women—especially those with limited awareness or support—suffer silently during this period, affecting their psychological well-being and overall quality of life. This quasi-experimental study aims to assess the effectiveness of empowerment strategies in improving psychological well-being and reducing perimenopausal symptoms among working women aged 40–55 years, specifically female nursing orderlies and housekeeping staff at Yenepoya Medical College Hospital, Mangaluru.

A total of 98 women will be selected using purposive sampling and divided equally into control and intervention groups. The intervention group will receive two structured 1-hour empowerment sessions over 2 days covering topics like education on perimenopause, lifestyle changes, sleep hygiene, psychological and emotional wellbeing, practical coping techniques (such as yoga and deep breathing). Daily motivational messages will reinforce the intervention for 15 days. Data will be collected using the WHO-5 Wellbeing Index and the Menopausal Rating Scale. Statistical analysis will include paired and unpaired t-tests, and chi-square tests to assess the impact of the intervention. Findings from this study may inform low-cost, holistic approaches for improving the health and quality of life of perimenopausal women through workplace-based interventions.
