A standardized Menopause Quality of Life questionnaire(MENQOL) tool was used to assess their Menopausal QoL andthe dietary pattern was analyzed using the 24-hour recallmethod. Data were examined statistically through descriptive and associative statistics by using the variables dietary pattern and Menopausal QoL.
