Abstract
Overall, the value women place on menopausal symptom relief is surprisingly high. As the first national study to directly ask women about their preferences and to estimate the value of menopausal symptom relief on a QALY scale, this work provides critical evidence for health outcomes research in midlife women and can be applied in the evaluation of treatments that reduce or eliminate menopausal symptoms. This work also provides proof-of-concept for an approach to value Patient-Reported Outcomes Version of the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events responses on a QALY scale.
