摘要
Using a feminist approach, we examined the menopausal symptom experience of Hispanic midlife women in the United States This was a qualitative online forum study among 27 Hispanic midlife women in the United States. Seven topics related to menopausal symptom experience were used to administer the 6-month online forum. The data were analyzed using thematic analysis. Four themes were identified: (a) oCambio de vida (change of life),o (b) obeing silent about menopause,o (c) otrying to be optimistic,o and (d) ogetting support.o More in-depth studies with diverse groups of Hispanic women are needed while considering family as a contextual factor.
