Menopause is a physiological process characterized by the cessation of menstruation and a decrease in hormone levels, primarily estrogens. These changes in a woman's body have a significant impact on the functioning of various organs and systems, including the reproductive system. One of the most important changes is the transformation of the cervix, which undergoes various morphological and functional changes. This article examines the main morphological aspects related to the cervix in women in menopause, with an emphasis on the impact of hormonal changes, as well as possible pathological processes that can develop during this period.
