Menopause and Lean Body Mass...
A recent groundbreaking study led by Dr. Vonda J. Wright, published by the International Menopause Society, introduces a new concept in women's health:
"musculoskeletal syndrome of menopause"
This term brings together a set of symptoms that many women experience during menopause, including joint pain, muscle aches, and decreased bone density.
The study highlights that approximately 70% of women experience these symptoms during menopause, and a concerning 25% could face disability due to these issues. This is a significant finding, as it emphasizes the serious impact menopause can have on women's health, far beyond the commonly discussed hot flashes and mood changes.
