Summary

Menopause, a significant transition in a woman's life characterized by the cessation of menstruation and a decline in ovarian function, leads to reduced levels of estrogen and progesterone. This hormonal shift is associated with a range of symptoms that can adversely affect women's quality of life, including vasomotor symptoms such as hot flashes and night sweats, psychological symptoms like mood swings and depression, as well as urogenital symptoms such as vaginal dryness and sexual dysfunction. These symptoms, collectively referred to as menopausal symptoms, can vary in severity and duration and frequently require intervention to alleviate their impact on daily life.
