Cross-culturally, women experience different patterns of physiological, psychological and psychosomatic symptoms during their menopausal transition. Using a biocultural and lifespan framework, this research investigates the impact of selected variables in order to determine the role diet plays in cultural symptom patterns. Retrospective data were collected from a community-based sample of fifty women using a self-administered questionnaire. Associations of dietary and non-dietary variables with ethnic menopause patterns were examined using visual methods. Line graphs were created for symptom patterns based on non-ethnic variables and compared to line graphs of ethnically-based patterns. Acculturation blurred the normally distinct cross-cultural patterns observed by other researchers, but many variables showed intense association with menopause symptom frequencies. Dietary elements created patterns with diverse frequency levels but factors having attitude or self-esteem components created symptom patterns in which individual values polarized into two or more distinct frequency levels. The differing patterns of menopause symptoms characteristically experienced cross-culturally may not be directly linked to diet but instead to the interaction of biological makeup and a combination of diet, attitudes, reproductive history and lifestyle choices throughout the lifespan.
