		+
		+	Menopause is not limited to the lack of a monthly cycle, but involves changes in the body including: dryer skin, changes in the sexual drive, hot flashes, changes in sleep cycles, and other minor changes. Though women throughout history have noted that menopause can be liberating, it is demanding on the physical body.
		+
		+	==Menopause and religion==
		+	Many cultures throughout the world have held special places in their community for women who have gone through menopause. They are often treated by the culture as "elders" at that point, acting as guides (in some cases for both men and women) about natural questions in life and community governance. Women in Native American tribes often become healers at this time in their life, and can sit on the various councils along side the men.
