Menstrual cyclicity and the pre-menopause
Abstract
The phase of menstrual life in which transition occurs from relatively regular cycles to the termination defined as menopause is studied for several hundred women who have kept accurate records of their menstrual flows. Age at both natural and oestrogenic menopause, age upon entry into the menopausal transition, and duration of that transition are analysed quantitatively. Detection of entry into the pre-menopausal phase is discussed. A complication of reactions to climacteric discomforts as recorded voluntarily by the study participants is presented.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
