Abstract		Climacteric period as well as monopause mean essential turning point in every woman's life. Longevity into the third and fourth life's period carries numerous changes that can significanty influence the quality of life. Up to now we have no adequate measures to quantify it. Specific menopausal symptoms as well as urogenital syndrome can be effectively treated with hormone replacement therapy. Estrogens are also very efficient in the prevention and treatment of late sequels of menopause i.e. osteoporosis and prevention of cardio-vascular diseases. It is also stressed the importance of physical activity as well as suitable selection of food including soya bean products.
