Objectives

Narrative objectives1

The objectives of this study are twofold.
First, we will administer a questionnaire survey (menopausal symptoms, work productivity, and willingness to work) to working women in middle age (35-64 years) and examine whether the presence of menopausal symptoms is associated with decreases in work performance and willingness to work. Furthermore, focusing on sleep disturbance, one of the main symptoms of menopause, we will perform sleep analysis using a novel patch-type electroencephalography device in participants who provide consent and evaluate the presence or absence of sleep disturbance.
Second, among participants with menopausal symptoms and/or sleep disturbance, we will provide counseling by gynecologists specializing in menopausal care to promote behavioral changes, and then repeat the questionnaire survey and sleep analysis to examine whether menopausal symptoms and sleep parameters improve. In addition, we will assess changes in work performance and willingness to work in order to evaluate the effects of counseling.
