Menopause and Resilience

Menopause is often misunderstood as a disease, yet it is a natural transition marked by symptoms like hot flushes and insomnia. Quality of life can be maintained through effective management of these symptoms. The resilience of humans, particularly in outliving reproductive capabilities, may be linked to the role of grandmothers, as highlighted by research on the Hadza community, where older women contribute significantly to their society.
