About this trial

The climacteric period involves physical, hormonal, and emotional changes that can impact a woman's quality of life. This mixed-methods study aims to explore the perceptions and experiences of women during menopause and the influence of cultural ethnicity on their quality of life in Primary Care centers in Tarragona. The research includes a quantitative phase to assess healthcare professionals' knowledge via electronic surveys and a qualitative phase using individual interviews with women from diverse backgrounds. The goal is to identify specific needs to adapt community nursing interventions and improve health promotion and equity during the climacteric stage.
