Abstract

 Menopause can be defined by the permanent stop of the menstruation which results of the lost of the ovaries follicular activity. It can either happen spontaneously or be induced.  45-52 years-old is the age  menopause typically appears, this being a gradual time process. Menopause presents a carasteristic symptomatology, in which hot flushes, insomnia, sweating are the most common. Menopause can be soothed by “Substitutive hormonal therapy” or “Phytoestrogens”. The purpose of this work was analyzing, picking up pertinent information from the women by a survey, informing and knowing the wrongly-used treatments, in order to describe the symptomatology and facilitate health education. About the women who took part in the survey, a very important percentage of them is poorly aware. Highlighted symptomas are insomnia and sweating mostly associated with hot flushes. Isoflavones are the treatment women most tolerate, coming first in the list of menopause medication
