Conclusion
It is possible to reduce the frequency and severity of menopause
symptoms with studies aimed at improving the menopause attitude of
women. An increase in awareness concerning menopause leads to a decrease
in menopausal psychological complaints. As in studies on menopausal
complaints, it was seen in this study that the attitudes that women have
about menopause were an effective variable in the emergence of
menopausal complaints. The positive development of the attitudes of the
women about menopause was important in reducing their menopausal
symptoms. It was concluded that the health and lifestyle behaviors of
women, as well as an evaluation of potential tools or programs to combat
menopausal symptoms and improvement in overall quality of life during
the menopause transition, are important, especially in groups of
patients with low levels of education and income. In this study, it was
found that there was a significant relationship between the menopausal
complaints of the women and their attitude towards menopause, and that
having a positive attitude towards menopause caused fewer menopausal
complaints. According to this result, it can be said that the symptoms
of menopause decrease as the positive attitude towards menopause
increases.
Taking into account the views of women in menopause, a lifestyle
modification program aimed at losing weight or maintaining weight allows
for alleviating metabolic disorders and reducing symptoms during the
menopause transition. It is important to improve the overall quality of
life for metabolic changes during the menopausal period.
Lifestyle changes and training to be applied for menopause should be
evaluated according to the realities of the country.
