The Staging of Menopause

Abstract

Staging of menopause not published and needed to be defined for long-term consequences and their management. This staging based on duration, event and action seems to be relevant. Each stage duration is highly variable, but a rough 5 years per stage calculation is clinically useful. Our ‘staging of menopause’ has now become the best method to understand the symptomatology, the complications and the management of a woman's best years—the menopause!
