Abstract

BACKGROUND: Menopause as the “permanent cessation of menstruation resulting from the loss of ovarian follicular activity”. 12 months of consecutive amenorrhea is recognized to occur in natural menopause. Menopause is prompted by decline in estrogen and progesterone production, and rising follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) levels. Elevation of early follicular phase FSH represents a clinical marker of reduced ovarian reserve and diminished responsiveness of ovary to ovulation induction. Yoga therapy is helpful in relieving stress, enhancing health, improving fitness and managing Menopausal symptoms. Regular Yoga practice can reduce insulin resistance and related physiological risk factor such as CVD, Sleep disturbances etc., AIM OF THE STUDY: To know the “Effect of yoga in Post–Menopausal syndrome”.
