During the past two decades, several studies in females
of animal models and human have been performed to unveil
the reproductive system changes and the complex
interactions with the ovaries. However, morphologic
variations in the central nerve system following
menopause have not yet been studied. Therefore, this
study utilized voxel-based morphormetry (VBM) to
evaluate the age-related changes and the effects of
menopause on the brain volumes in postmenopausal women.
