Abstract	Women are expected to spend 1/3 of their life in a menopausal state as the average life span increased. There is a large amount of studies conducted on mHealth intervention, but the amount of study conducted for this particular target group is relatively small. In order to develop a mobile intervention for wellness of menopausal women, we identify design considerations for supporting their wellness with mobile devices. We assume 9 functions we believed the target domain need to use their mobile application for their wellness and conduct interviews with a focus group including middle aged women and members of stakeholder. As a result, we were able to conclude that the mobile health intervention system would need to provide 1)SNS function that users can actively share their health information with others, 2)message function that enables application to send text information on health management, 3) reliable source from doctors, and 4)visualized personal information that users can easily understand.
