Resumen
This study aimed to identify the main physiological, emotional and social changes that occur in women during the climacteric period. To this end, we performed a narrative review on the physiological and emotional, sexuality and quality of life of women in the climacteric period. Concern about the quality of life in health during the aging process has increased in recent years. The climacteric also called menopausal syndrome comprises a set of signs and symptoms that diminish the welfare of women. The literature review showed that most women come to the climacteric period with very little information, and shall be subject to doubts, fears and insecurities that could have been avoided if they were well informed on the subject. It also made possible to identify this issue important to women who are premenopausal, and also for professionals in the Family Health Team. In particular, aspects related to sexuality, emotional health and quality of life.
