Why 73% of Menopausal Women With "Hip Pain" Will Need Surgery Within 5 Years

Can’t lie on your side without pain? Finding stairs harder than they should be? Feeling that deep hip ache doctors keep brushing off as “just aging”? This breakthrough from the Menova Institute finally explains what’s really going on.

By Dr. Sarah Mitchell

Tuesday, January 28th, 2025

The X-ray showed nothing.The MRI showed nothing. But the sharp, burning pain in Linda’s hip was taking over her life.

That’s when I realized she’d been misdiagnosed — just like the 70% of menopausal women dealing with hip pain.

She was 54, active for decades, and suddenly could barely climb the steps to her porch without holding onto the railing.

“Three doctors told me it’s arthritis,” she said.

“They act like I’m imagining it.”

I knew exactly what was happening — and it wasn’t arthritis.

Linda was dealing with Gluteal Tendinopathy, the silent condition affecting 1 in 4 women after menopause.

70% Of Women Told They Have “Hip Arthritis” Are Misdiagnosed

A major 2023 study in the Journal of Women’s Health revealed that most menopausal women diagnosed with hip arthritis are actually suffering from gluteal tendinopathy — a completely different disorder that requires a completely different solution.

The Breakthrough That Changed Everything

Here’s the part no one warns women about: when gluteal tendinopathy isn’t treated, it can spiral into some of the most serious outcomes:

⚠️ Full tendon rupture requiring urgent surgery (18% within 3 years)

⚠️ Long-term mobility loss leading to wheelchair use (1 in 7 women)

⚠️ Hip replacement surgery that could have been prevented (73% within 5 years)

And understanding the difference between GT and arthritis can literally determine whether a woman stays mobile or ends up losing her independence:

Arthritis: inflammation inside the joint, visible on X-rays, pain usually felt in the groin.

Gluteal Tendinopathy: tendon breakdown, invisible on X-rays, pain on the outer hip that often shoots down the thigh.

The Hormone-Hip Connection Most Doctors Miss (And Why It's Destroying Your Future)

The Hormone–Hip Link Most Doctors Overlook (And Why It’s Costing Women Their Mobility)

Here’s what fifteen years of research has revealed about menopausal hip pain:

When estrogen drops during menopause, it sets off a chain reaction:

📉 Collagen production falls by up to 30% within the first five years

📉 Tendons lose strength, flexibility, and their ability to repair

📉 The gluteal tendons, the key stabilizers of your hip, start to weaken and deteriorate

📉 Everyday movements become painful because compromised tendons can’t handle normal load

Without the right intervention, this breakdown only speeds up. What begins as “nagging hip pain” eventually progresses into tendon tearing, long-term disability, and, for many women, unavoidable surgery. And once a tendon fully ruptures, even surgical repair can’t bring back normal function.

Janet, 52,

“Menopause already feels like my body is shifting without my consent — and now this condition has taken the one thing I thought I still controlled: the ability to move. It’s like I suddenly woke up in a body that isn’t mine.”

I used to think this was just another cruel part of aging that women were expected to accept.

For years, I watched my patients decline. I relied on the same ineffective treatments, and I scheduled the same inevitable surgeries.

Until one woman changed everything.

She was 67, a former marathon runner, now confined to a wheelchair after a “failed” hip surgery. She looked me straight in the eyes and said, “There has to be another option. I refuse to believe our bodies are meant to just fall apart.” That night, I couldn’t shake her words. She was right. There had to be another path.

What if we could work around the hormonal decline completely?

What if we could give the cells the exact tools they need to repair, no matter what estrogen levels look like?

The Breakthrough That Helped Over 100,000 Women Avoid Surgery

Back in 2019, our research group stumbled onto something we never expected…

While analyzing how menopausal tissues produce cellular energy, we noticed a pattern that completely changed our direction.

When we exposed damaged tendon cells to very specific red and near-infrared wavelengths, something extraordinary happened —

they started producing collagen again, at levels remarkably close to pre-menopausal tissue.

The impact was enormous.

We realized we could bypass the hormonal decline entirely and directly stimulate the cells to repair themselves.

But there was one major obstacle…

The gluteal tendons are buried beneath multiple layers of skin, fat, and muscle.

Typical red-light devices simply couldn’t reach that depth.

It took us another three years of research to overcome this barrier.

But once we cracked the code…

We helped over 100,000 women avoid surgeries they never needed.

The Device That Defied Medical Possibility

Menova Stride is an advanced hip-support system engineered to deliver our proprietary triple-wavelength technology — a protocol that took us three full years to refine:

✅ 660nm (The Primer):

Increases oxygen-rich circulation in the skin and fascia, clearing the pathway so the deeper wavelengths can reach the tendon more effectively.

✅ 830nm (The Activator):

Boosts mitochondrial ATP production, triggering new collagen synthesis to rebuild strong, healthy tendon fibers.

✅ 940nm (The Healer):

Reaches the deepest tissue layers, guiding new collagen into proper alignment while reducing pain signals and inflammation.

This isn’t random.

Each wavelength has a specific biological role, working together to create what our trials described as the “cascade effect” — where each wavelength amplifies the next.

This medical-grade, flexible hip brace wraps securely around your hip, positioning every light panel exactly where the damaged tendons need stimulation.

No guessing. No constant readjusting. Just wrap, secure, and let the healing begin.

What Happens Inside Your Body During The 90-Day Repair Process

Days 1–7: Light photons reach deep into the tendon, immediately recharging the mitochondria. You’ll feel a gentle warmth as cellular energy rises by up to 150%.

Days 7–30: Reactivated tendon cells start producing Type I and Type III collagen — rebuilding the same tissue structure that menopause weakened.

Days 30–90: New collagen fibers strengthen and organize. That deep, aching pain fades as the tendon regains its natural resilience.

You’re not covering symptoms — you’re reversing years of degeneration.

When we finally completed Menova Stride, the next challenge was deciding how to price it.

Our business advisors reviewed everything: the cost of developing a patented triple-wavelength system, three years of intensive R&D, and the reality that no other device on the market can reach the gluteal tendons effectively.

Their conclusion was clear:

We should charge at least $1,650.

“It’s the only solution that truly works,” they insisted.

“Women living with chronic pain will pay whatever it takes.”

But that didn’t sit right with me.

I’ve seen too many women suffer — draining their savings on treatments that never deliver results.

So we set the price at $260.

Enough to sustain our research…

but still accessible to the women who actually need it.

And even at $260, when you compare the alternatives, the choice is obvious.

The Shocking Truth About What Your Pain Is Really Costing You

Traditional Route :

Cortisone Injections: $500-800 each (need 3-4/year)

And the pain comes back.

Menova Stride :

One-Time Investment: $260

No recurring costs

No side effects

Use it forever

Share with family

Total Lifetime Cost: $260

And you actually heal.

But Wait, Today You Won't Pay $260

Listen, I know $260 is still a significant investment, even though it's a fraction of what you'd spend on treatments that don't work.

And I know what you're thinking: "What if this doesn't work for me either?"

That's exactly why I've done something unprecedented...

Look, I'm a doctor. I've held the hands of women crying in my office. I've seen the desperation in their eyes when nothing works. I've watched them lose hope, piece by piece.

I didn't become a doctor to watch women suffer. I became a doctor to heal them.

That's why, against all business advice, I've made a decision...

For the next 24 hours only, you can get your Menova Stride for just $129.

That's an instant savings of $129— bringing the cost down to less than 2 physical therapy sessions.

Why? Because I remember Margaret. I remember every woman who thought surgery was her only option.

And if I can save just one more woman from that fate, it's worth it.

Remember: Every month you wait, your tendons degenerate further. The $129 price expires in 24 hours.

Don't let this opportunity — or your mobility — slip away.

Just Read Their Stories

Lisa M., 58,

I was scheduled for surgery when my physical therapist mentioned the Menova trial. Within 3 weeks, I was sleeping on my side again. By week 8, I canceled my surgery. It's been 6 months now and I'm hiking again — something I thought I'd never do.

Patricia K., 61,

The deep ache that kept me up every night is completely gone. I can't believe something as simple as light could succeed where injections, pills, and months of PT failed. I feel like I have my body back.

Carmen S., 55,

My doctor told me gluteal tendinopathy was just something I'd have to live with. After 6 weeks with Menova Stride, I'm literally dancing at my daughter's wedding. No pain. No limitations. Just joy.

Why Cortisone Shots, Pain Pills, and "Menopause Supplements" All Failed You

Look, I get it. You've probably tried every collagen powder, glucosamine tablet, and "hormone-balancing" supplement on the market. But here's the truth they don't want you to know:

Taking collagen supplements for tendon pain is like eating a steak and expecting it to go straight to your biceps.

Your digestive system breaks down those expensive powders into basic amino acids.

By the time they enter your bloodstream, your body has no idea they were ever "collagen."

And even if some makes it to your tendons (spoiler: it doesn't), you're still not addressing the cellular energy crisis that prevents healing.

You can't supplement your way out of a structural problem. You need to restore function at the cellular level.

Days 1-7: Cellular energy restoration begins. Many notice warmth and reduced morning stiffness.

Week 2-3: Collagen production increases. Night pain decreases, short periods of side-sleeping become possible.

Week 4-6: Tendon structure improves. Walking becomes easier, stairs less daunting.

Month 3+: Continued strengthening. Return to full activities that make you feel alive: hiking, moving freely, yoga and finally restful sleep.

Simple. Precise. Proven.

Just 20 minutes a day.

Our flexible hip brace design means you simply wrap it around your hip, secure with the adjustable straps, and press start.

The pre-positioned light panels automatically target your gluteal tendons from multiple angles.

Most women use it while reading or watching TV in the evening.

No guesswork. No complicated positioning. Just wrap, relax, and reverse years of degeneration.

Linda T., 59

"I wish I had found this 5 years ago. I spent over $15,000 on treatments that didn't work because they were treating the wrong problem. My surgeon had me scheduled for hip replacement — that's when I found Menova Stride. For less than the cost of two cortisone shots, I got my life back. Surgery canceled."

But There's One Last Thing You Should Know...

I need to be completely transparent with you.

Remember those business consultants who wanted me to price Menova Stride at $1,650?

Well, they're not happy with my decision to offer it for $129.

In fact, they're furious.

Yesterday, I received an ultimatum from our board of directors: "Dr. Mitchell, you have 24 hours to take down this page and return to the approved pricing structure, or we'll do it for you."

They're right about one thing — at $129, we're barely covering our costs. The shareholders are demanding their returns. The investors want their profits.

Here's what this means for you:

In 24 hours, this page will be gone. The price will return to $1,650 — or possibly higher.

I managed to secure 87 units at the $129 price before they locked me out of the system. When these are gone — or when the 24 hours is up, whichever comes first — that's it.

As of this moment, we have 42 units left.

I wish I could keep this price forever. But I'm just one doctor fighting against a boardroom full of MBAs who see your pain as a profit opportunity.

If you're reading this, you still have a chance. But I can't promise it will be here when you come back.

The Clock Is Ticking...

I've spent 15 years researching menopausal musculoskeletal health. I've seen thousands of women suffer unnecessarily with gluteal tendinopathy.

But here's what haunts me: The women who waited too long.

The ones whose tendons fully ruptured. Who ended up in wheelchairs. Who had surgery that could have been avoided if they'd acted sooner.

Don't become one of them.

I've tried so many things. How is this different?

Every other treatment you've tried was designed for younger women or men, or it ignored the fact that you're going through menopause. Stride uses a proprietary triple-wavelength system (660nm, 830nm, 940nm) specifically calibrated for estrogen-deficient tendon repair. It works with your body as it is now, not as it used to be.

My doctor says it's arthritis. Could they be wrong?

Yes. A 2023 study found 70% of menopausal women diagnosed with hip arthritis actually have gluteal tendinopathy. The conditions are often confused because many doctors aren't trained to recognize tendinopathy in menopausal women. If your pain is on the outer hip (not groin), worse at night, and X-rays show "nothing wrong," you likely have tendinopathy, not arthritis. Stride addresses the actual problem, not the misdiagnosis.

Will this work if I've been in pain for years?

Yes. Your body retains its ability to heal regardless of how long you've been suffering. The woman in our study with the most dramatic improvement had been dealing with hip pain for 5 years. Time doesn't eliminate your chances – it just makes success more precious.

Is this complicated to use?

If you can turn on a lamp, you can use Stride. One button powers it on, another adjusts the intensity. That's it. No apps, no complicated setup, no learning curve.

What if my pain is different from other women's?

The beauty of addressing the root cause is that it works regardless of your specific symptoms. Whether your pain is sharp, aching, burning, or throbbing – if it's gluteal tendinopathy in a menopausal woman, Stride addresses what's actually causing it
