El bochorno es el síntoma que puede anunciar la menopausia meses o años antes de que terminen las menstruaciones en la mujer climatérica (1).
Este síntoma, más molesto que ningún otro de los que acompañan a la menopausia, hace que la mujer busque alivio terapéutico. A pesar del aumento de la longevidad en las últimas décadas, el promedio de edad para la cesación de la función ovárica ha permanecido estable aproximadamente en 51.4 años (3).
