“…They also put on apron over their usual attire (traditionally called Saree ) to protect it from dust and dirt. Sievert et al (2016) in a Bangladesh based study argued that covering of head, neck and chest by sedente Muslim women increases the likelihood of experiencing hot flashes than that of their immigrants' counterpart.

“…Around 40%–54% of women experience GSM after the onset of menopausal transition (Dasgupta & Ray, 2015).

The women represent a subsample of a larger study that investigated reproductive aging at midlife and who were willing to volunteer for venipuncture (Begum et al, 2016;Dhanoya et al, 2016;Murphy et al, 2013;Sharmeen et al, 2013;Sievert et al, 2008Sievert et al, , 2016.…”
