Menopause is a natural part of ageing and can be understood as the end of a female’s reproductive years. During menopause, a woman’s body goes through numerous physiological and psychological changes. The prominent physiological symptom of menopause is a woman’s ovary terminating the release of eggs for fertilisation. This phase is also marked by a significant drop in the reproductive hormones that assist a woman’s reproductive cycle.
While a common notion exists among people that the effects of menopause are limited to reproductive function but studies over time have shown that menopausal and post-menopausal women may experience symptoms related to other health conditions as well. One among them is poor bone and joint health.
