Methods:The study was descriptive and cross-sectional, conducted with women between the ages of 40 and 59 who actively use internet social media (WhatsApp, Instagram, Facebook, etc). The Personal Information Form, Menopause Symptoms Rating Scale (Menopause Rating Scale), and Aging Anxiety Scale for Middle-Aged Women were used to collect the data. Results:In the study, a statistically significant positive correlation was found between women's aging anxiety and menopausal symptoms (P < 0.05, r = 0.659). It was determined that there is an association between the effect of aging anxiety and menopausal symptoms (B = 0.38, P < 0.001). Conclusions:In the study, it was found that there was an association between menopausal symptoms and aging anxiety. However, the direction of the association is unknown. Therefore, it is recommended that health professionals address menopausal symptoms and aging anxiety together.
