Aging Into One of the Happiest Times of Life

As is the case with many aspects of women’s reproductive health, there is not a lot of research focusing on the possible positive feelings and experiences related to the menopause transition. When researchers examine a topic with a preconceived notion that there could only be negative outcomes, they structure their research to measure only negative outcomes. For example, in many studies researchers gave women a menopause symptom scale to identify possible physical and emotional problems related to menopause.1 Few studies included something like a “menopausal happiness scale.” If women felt any positive aspects of menopause, they had nowhere to report them to researchers. But that doesn’t mean positive feelings don’t exist.
