Climacteric, a transitional phase encompassing perimenopause, affects a substantial proportion of women worldwide. This review aims to provide an in-depth examination of the Ayurvedic aspects of climacteric, including its pathophysiology, treatment modalities, and potential applications. Ayurvedic classics describe this phase as VardhakyaAvastha (old age), characterized by gradual tissue decline and VataVriddhi. The concept of RajoNivrutti (menopause) emphasizes the importance of addressing physical, mental, and emotional aspects of women's health during this phase. This review explores the efficacy of Ayurvedic treatments, including Rasayana and Panchakarma, in managing climacteric symptoms. By integrating Ayurvedic principles with modern healthcare, this review aims to contribute to the development of comprehensive treatment strategies for women navigating the climacteric phase
