In Benin, as life
expectancy continues to increase, the number of postmenopausal women increases.
Menopause is a physiological phenomenon that can be quiet for some+, tumultuous
in others.
Few studies are
devoted to menopause in Africa and Benin in particular. The objective of this
study was to describe the profile, clinical symptoms of menopausal women
as well as management of postmenopausal symptoms in Cotonou,
Benin.
This is an
analytical cross-sectional study in Cotonou, the capital city of Benin Republic
during the month of August 2014. 2021 women were included in the study out of a
female population of 11,669 people aged 40 and older.
