Abstract: Menopause signifies a profound transition in a womans life, marked by the permanent cessation of menstruation and the end of ovarian follicle development. While genetics largely determine the onset age—unaffected by race, socioeconomic status, or age at first menstruation—factors like smoking, ovarian surgeries, or hysterectomies (even when ovaries are retained) can trigger an earlier onset. This phase introduces a spectrum of symptoms known as postmenopausal syndrome, significantly impacting womens health. Key mental health concerns during this period include depression, sleep disturbances, mood swings, irritability, and cognitive impairments such as memory issues. Additionally, theres an increased risk of developing psychiatric disorders post-menopause.
