Abstract

Menopause is a phase in a woman's life and many women are anxious and afraid of this phase. . according to a report from Badan Pusat Statistik (BPS) in 2013, the number of women aged 50 and above increased drastically from , 19.5 million in 2010, to an extimated 39.5 million by the year 2030. With such large number and the average age for menopause being 51 years, it is evident that more than one third of a woman's life is spent after menopause. This will certainly cause health problems that would pose challenges for the medical sector especially in the area of trying to improve the health of women. Physical exercise plays an important role in improving the fuctions of women's reproductive organs .. Physical exercise improves ovulation rate and menstrual frequency, as well as restoring the functions of the reproductive organs through hormonal system repair. physical exercise increases the level of estrogen in individuals who exercises regularly unlike in those who do not exercise regularly.
