Background: Postmenopausal syndrome (PMS) is a natural transition in a woman’s life characterized by a range of physical, emotional, and psychological symptoms. Despite its widespread prevalence and potential health implications, awareness of PMS remains limited, particularly in rural and underserved regions like Kangra, Himachal Pradesh. Early education about menopause can enable women to adopt preventive measures and seek timely medical interventions to mitigate associated risks such as osteoporosis, cardiovascular diseases, and mental health challenges.Material and Methods: This descriptive, cross-sectional study was conducted to evaluate awareness and understanding of PMS among reproductive-age women in Kangra. A structured questionnaire-based survey assessed socio-demographic characteristics and knowledge of menopause symptoms, risk factors, and management strategies. A sample size of 350 participants was selected using a systematic random sampling method. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, and chi-square tests were applied to determine associations between socio-demographic variables and awareness levels.Results:The study revealed diverse socio-demographic backgrounds, with 61.4% of participants from rural areas and 26.7% holding undergraduate degrees. While 81% recognized the importance of regular health check-ups, knowledge gaps persisted, particularly regarding the connection between menopause and cardiovascular risks (66.2%) and mental health challenges (64.3%). Overall, 33.3% of participants demonstrated very good knowledge, 37.1% had good knowledge, 21% showed fair knowledge, and 8.6% exhibited poor awareness. Socio-cultural barriers and limited health literacy in rural areas emerged as significant challenges.Conclusion: The findings highlight the need for community-driven, culturally sensitive educational initiatives to improve awareness of PMS. Integrating menopause education into existing maternal health programs and leveraging digital health platforms can bridge knowledge gaps and encourage timely healthcare-seeking behaviors. Addressing socio-cultural barriers and engaging families in awareness campaigns will further support women in managing this critical phase of life effectively.
