There was no correlation between the menopause management practice and the duration of symptoms and degree of low back pain. Both premenopausal and postmenopausal groups generally showed poor menopausal practice management The postmenopausal group showed a higher score in management of sex life than the premenopausal group(t=2.42, p=0.016).
