Menopausal Women

Meaning

Menopausal Women refers to the population of individuals who have permanently ceased menstruation, defined retrospectively as having experienced twelve consecutive months of amenorrhea, marking the end of reproductive capacity. This physiological transition is a direct consequence of ovarian follicular depletion, leading to a profound and sustained reduction in estrogen and progesterone production. This hormonal shift significantly impacts systemic health, necessitating clinical attention to mitigate symptoms and long-term risks like osteoporosis and cardiovascular changes.
