Reproductive health can be a reflection of overall health. It follows that abnormalities of reproductive milestones may be a manifestation of unhealthy aging. Since 1994, the Study of Women's Health Across the Nation (SWAN) has assessed how menopause and the process of that transition may affect future health. Themes have emerged from SWAN associating patterns of hormones and symptoms with metabolic status.The nature of these relationships vary as women traverse the menopause and ovarian hormone production ceases. This review describes these cross-cutting themes and their possible meaning for the health of the mid-life woman.
生殖健康可以反映整体健康状况。因此，生殖里程碑的异常可能是不健康衰老的表现。自 1994 年以来，妇女健康全国研究（SWAN）一直在评估更年期及其过渡过程如何影响未来的健康。SWAN 研究发现，激素和症状模式与代谢状态有关。随着女性进入更年期，卵巢激素停止分泌，这些关系的性质也发生了变化。本文综述了这些跨领域的主题及其对中年女性健康的可能意义。
