Kupperman Index
The Kupperman Index is a tool used by healthcare providers to assess the severity of menopause symptoms. It assigns scores to common symptoms like hot flashes, night sweats, sleep problems, and mood changes based on their intensity. By summing these scores, clinicians can determine how bothersome menopause symptoms are and monitor changes over time or in response to treatment. This helps tailor personalized management plans for women experiencing menopause-related discomfort.
