Etymology

The term 'menopausal' derives from 'menopause,' which combines the Greek words 'men' meaning month, and 'pausis' meaning cessation. This term emerged in medical literature in the late 19th century as understanding of womenโ€™s reproductive health evolved. Menopause itself has been recognized throughout history, though its implications were often misunderstood or stigmatized. As society's perspectives on aging and women's health have changed, the term has gained broader recognition and importance in discussions about health and wellness in womenโ€™s lives. Modern research continues to reveal insights into the menopausal experience, leading to better management strategies and support.
