Summary
This study tests whether progressive relaxation exercises and planned education can reduce menopause symptoms, stress, and anxiety in menopausal women. About 144 women will participate, with some receiving the relaxation and education program and others not. The goal is to see if these simple, non-drug approaches improve quality of life during menopause.
