Interpreting The Menopause Type®
Questionnaire |
|||||||
|
There are
two ways you can use the Menopause Type® Questionnaire to
determine your menopause type based on symptoms: |
|||||||
|
First, you
can take the On-Line
Menopause Type® Questionnaire, which will
automatically calculate your menopause type® based on symptoms.
The results are based on the computerized analysis of the Menopause Type®
Questionnaire. |
|||||||
|
The second
option is to download a copy of the Printable
Copy of the Menopause Type® Questionnaire. This download is in
a PDF printable format. The free Adobe Acrobat Reader
is required to view and print PDF files. The printable copy includes a second
page, which is for the interpretation of the Menopause Type®
Questionnaire. |
|||||||
|
A basic
interpretation will reveal your Menopause Type® based on symptoms.
This analysis of subjective data may be used for determining which lifestyle,
nutritional, dietary herbal and homeopathy therapies are ideal for you. |
|||||||
|
Interpreting
the Menopause Type® Questionnaire |
|||||||
|
You can
interpret the Menopause Type® Questionnaire with simple
mathematics. |
|
||||||
|
|
|||||||
|
First, place the Totals from each section of the
questionnaire and place them in the next to the appropriate letter in the SECTION
column. |
|||||||
|
Next, multiply those totals by the numbers in
Column 1 through 5 as indicated. For instance column 1
needs to have the totals from A, D, E & F
each multiplied by 4, then entered in that column. |
|||||||
|
Now add those numbers together and enter that
number at the bottom of the column. |
|||||||
|
These totals
are then compared to each other in eight steps. |
|||||||
|
The Menopause
Type is identified by comparing the number in the "Group Box" and T
Box" with the table on the worksheet. |
|||||||
|
Advanced Interpretation of the
Menopause Type® Questionnaire |
|||||||
|

professional, which has taken the Management of Menopause Type®
