Abstract

Introduction: Many postmenopausal women experience hot flashes, night sweats, decreased sexual desire and vaginal dryness. In this study, we aimed to compare the menopause symptom levels of surgical menopause patients and natural menopause patients by using a Menopause Rating Scale (MRS) and investigate whether there is a relationship between lipid levels and menopausal symptoms in surgical menopause patients.
