The menopausal woman: The need for an individualized plan of care

Abstract:
With life expectancy increasing, women will spend one-third of their lives in and beyond menopause. A collaborative discussion with the clinician facilitates informed decision-making and should include evidence-based discussion of physiologic changes, assessment of symptoms and treatment options, review of screening recommendations, and discussion of disease risk-reduction strategies and psychosocial issues.
