Abstract

This is a prospective, triple-blinded and randomized controlled trial with a crossover design. Our results confirm that this four-week home-based breathing training assisted with biofeedback has a beneficial impact on menopausal symptoms, measured by the Greene Climacteric Scale, among community menopausal women in Taiwan.
