Abstract
A heterogeneous disorder, premature menopause is not an uncommon entity, affecting approximately 1% of women younger than 40 years. Multisystem implications are recognized as sequelae to the premature deprivation of ovarian steroids, posing unique health-related challenges in this population. An integrated management approach that addresses both the physical and psychological health concerns and the overall well-being of this relatively chronologically young population is paramount.Entities:
