Find out effect of age and other symptoms on menopause

New Delhi, Nov 07 (ANI): Women enter menopause at different age and with non-similar symptoms, says a recent study. Investigators found little support for this theory in a study of four ethnic groups in China. The findings are published in -- Ecology and Evolution.

"Actually, those women who had dispersed from their natal home seemed to experience worse menopause symptoms, which is in the opposite direction from the original theory. We wonder if the stress of living away from kin might be a contributory factor," said senior author Ruth Mace,
