Climacteric is a physiological period of woman’s life starting from the decline in ovarian activity until the end of ovarian function. The end of ovarian function associated with the significant reduction in estradiol progestin synthesis results in the hormonal changes that lead to the clinical manifestations of postmenopausal period. During this period, metabolic disorders and cardiovascular events are common. In addition, the risks of various cancers (i.e., breast, colorectal, pancreatic, bladder, and endometrial cancer) increase greatly. Moreover, the risk of osteoporosis, a condition that affects the quality of life, also increases. Considering this, menopausal hormone therapy and drugs promoting bone metabolism should be prescribed in addition to the changes in the lifestyle and encouraging physical activity.
Keywords: menopause, climax, bone mineral density, fractures, osteoporosis, ibandronic acid.
