Early Severe Vasomotor Menopausal Symptoms and Diabetes
Women with an early severe VMS profile are more likely to have diabetes across a period of 15 years. This association is not explained by BMI or other potential confounders. Our findings imply that the predictive value of VMS for diabetes may vary with the timing of VMS relative to menopause.
