In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Menopause is a biological process characterized by the permanent cessation of menstruation, often accompanied by vasomotor symptoms, sleep disturbances, anxiety, and impaired quality of life. In primary healthcare settings, structured lifestyle interventions offer low-cost, safe, and sustainable non-pharmacological management strategies. The objective of this prospective, randomized controlled trial is to evaluate whether a structured lifestyle educational intervention leads to significant improvements in menopausal symptom severity, sleep quality, and anxiety levels compared with a control group receiving routine clinical care among perimenopausal and postmenopausal women aged 40 to 55 years. Primary and secondary outcomes are evaluated using the Menopause Rating Scale (MRS), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), and Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7) at baseline and at 24 weeks.
