Abstract
As the global elderly population continues to grow,the prevalence of sarcopenia is also steadily increasing.In women,hormonal alterations,increased inflammatory factors,and lifestyle changes due to menopause may accelerate or contribute to the onset of sarcopenia.Functional impairment and physical disability are major outcomes of sarcopenia;therefore,it is essential to prevent and potentially treat sarcopenia through healthy lifestyle choices,traditional Chinese medicine,or,when appropriate,hormone replacement therapy.This review elucidated the epidemiological characteristics of sarcopenia and the impact of menopause on its onset and progression.
