Summary

This study examines how bladder, bowel, and sexual symptoms change across different stages of menopause in women aged 40 to 65. Researchers will compare symptoms in perimenopausal, early postmenopausal, and late postmenopausal women using validated questionnaires. The goal is to better understand the impact of hormonal changes on pelvic floor health.

What could go wrong: This is an observational study, so it cannot prove cause and effect. Results may not apply to all women, especially those with prior pelvic surgery or hormone therapy.
