Menopausal symptoms among Chinese peri- and postmenopausal women: a large prospective single-center cohort study.

Urogenital symptoms among midlife Chinese women are common, frequently also in combination with sexual dysfunction, although many do not often complain about these in the first place. Postmenopausal women presented more prevalent and severe menopausal symptoms. In contrast to Western countries, VMS are rare among our population. A multidisciplinary approach and use of hormonal and non-hormonal therapies should be considered for these women.
