Greene Menopause Questionnaire
Symptoms Questionnaire
The questionnaire below is one of the most widely used methods to assess menopausal symptoms.
It is called the Greene Climacteric Scale and covers most of the common symptoms of perimenopause and menopause. This is a verified measurement tool used globally in both clinical practice and research studies.
However, it cannot be used on its own to diagnose menopause, and it does not cover every possible symptom—including some vaginal and urinary changes.
The scale can form a useful part of an overall assessment and can also be used to track how your symptoms change over time. This form is useful to take to your GP to start a discussion about your menopause symptoms.
If you feel you are experiencing some of these symptoms and are concerned, you should see your GP or book an appointment with Dr. Kafa.
A copy of your answers and score will be emailed to you once you have completed the form.
This scale provides a measure of some common perimenopausal and menopausal symptoms. It does not assess every possible symptom and cannot be used alone to make a diagnosis. However, it is useful as a general overview and to track how your symptoms change over time or after different treatments and lifestyle approaches.
The scale covers three areas:
Psychological (questions 1–11)
Physical (questions 12–18)
Vasomotor (questions 19, 20)
