What is Effect of Aging, Menopause, and Age at Natural Menopause on the Trend in Body Mass Index: a 15-Year Population-based Cohort about?
## Objective: To observe the effects of menopause, age at natural menopause (anm), and aging on the trend in body mass index (bmi). ## Design: Prospective cohort with a 15-year follow-up of 929 women. data obtained from the tehran lipid and glucose study. ## Setting: Not applicable. ## Intervention(s): None. ## Participant(s): Of women participating in the tehran lipid and glucose study, 929 who were reproductive during the study and menopaused at the last follow-up were included. anthropometric data were measured repeatedly every 3 years, and the trend in bmi, associated with menopause and anm, was tested using the generalized estimating equation. ## Main outcome measure(s): Body mass index in each follow-up session. ## Result(s): The adjusted model of the generalized estimating equation illustrates that bmi increases by age (β = 0.16) and menopausal status (β = 1.11). it also shows that women with higher anm experienced a decreasing bmi (β = -0.03) compared with women with lower anm. the interaction term of menopause and time (menopause × time) has a negative effect on bmi; that is, the usual increase in bmi after menopause is attenuated by time. (β = -0.4, 95% confidence interva
