Early Menopause in India and Bihar Highlights Health and Awareness Challenges
Menopause in India typically occurs around age 46, earlier than the global average of 51, yet remains a largely overlooked health topic. In Bihar, many women experience premature menopause in their thirties, often due to surgical procedures like hysterectomy rather than natural causes. This early menopause increases risks of heart disease and osteoporosis. Awareness and informed medical care are crucial for managing symptoms and improving quality of life, especially for socioeconomically disadvantaged women affected by these practices.
