Abstract：
Arthralgia is a common complaint around the time of menopause in many women. It is estimated that over 50% of women experience arthralgia or arthritis at the time of menopause. The complex of symptoms has been linked to the joint and tendon response to the decline in sex hormones as well as sarcopenia, or loss of muscle volume associated with aging. The diagnosis of \"arthritis of menopause\" has been identified since 1925, but treatments have been symptomatic at best.1,2 Joint synovium and cartilage interaction with estrogen is well documented. This article reviews the literature regarding the current approaches to treatment of arthralgia of menopause.
