Age at menopause and menopause-related symptoms in human immunodeficiency virus–infected Thai women

Abstract

AM in HIV-infected Thai women was 47.3 years, which is significantly earlier than the findings of a previous AM report on non-HIV-infected women. Postmenopausal HIV-infected women had more vasomotor and sexual symptoms. More studies are needed to investigate the cause and appropriate interventions for accelerated menopause in HIV-infected women.
