The Menopause Research Institute (MRI) is an independent subsidiary of the Center for Human Reproduction (CHR), one of the nations’s oldest, and most reputable clinical and research centers in reproductive medicine and infertility. MRI is exclusively dedicated to the clinical care of women in various phases of menopause and to research that will better their care.

WHAT WE STAND FOR:
MRI’s principle purpose is to apply and to develop menopausal treatments for women, which facilitate a smooth transition from normal reproductive life, through perimenopause into true menopause, while maximizing physical health and a feeling of well being.

WHY WE ARE DIFFERENT:
At MRI, we don’t believe in standardized care. We recognized a long time ago that, like fertility treatments, menopause requires individualization. However, even more importantly, the successful treatment of menopause cannot be static. As hormonal levels change, as women advance through the different stages of ovarian aging, so do the needs of their bodies. Menopause care, therefore, requires regular adjustments to those changing needs.

WHAT WE ARE NOT:
We are not a replacement for your gynecologist. Indeed, even though our physicians are gynecologists by specialty, they are sub-specialists within Ob/Gyn, with special expertise in hormonal, metabolic and reproductive matters. The care and advice they offer, therefore, does not substitute for your routine gynecologic needs. For that reason, we strongly recommend and encourage that patients maintain relationships with their gynecologists, and our physicians routinely cooperate closely with patients’ primary physicians.
