A recent study highlighted in Milenio (Mexico) on February 19, 2026, suggests masturbation as an alternative treatment to alleviate menopause symptoms. The research indicates that self-stimulation may help reduce common menopausal discomforts, potentially offering a non-pharmaceutical option for symptom management. This finding is significant as it introduces a novel approach to menopause care, which traditionally relies on hormone replacement therapy and other medical interventions. The study's implications could influence healthcare providers and patients seeking alternative or complementary therapies for menopause.
