Menopause, the other menstrual taboo for Indian women

Summary

Nutrition label

77% Informative

Indian women on average hit menopause a few years earlier than their counterparts in the West , studies show.

This is a result of nutritional and environmental factors as well as genetic factors.

But in a country where conversation on menstruation still comes with stigma and taboo, awareness is lagging.

Most symptoms are manageable with supplements, changes in diet, exercise and, if necessary, hormone replacement therapy.

The rest experienced one or more symptoms mildly while 15-20% were experiencing it to a severe degree.

While information within India remains scarce, many women say they are turning to social media.

Many follow American specialists like Dr Mary Claire Haver who shares latest research on social media and celebrities like Naomi Watts and Halle Berry .
