Blame men for menopause in women

A study led by a biologist has seemed to found out what causes menopause in women, and they have narrowed it down to men.


An evolutionary geneticist, backed by computer models developed by colleagues, has determined that menopause is actually an unintended outcome of natural selection - the result of its effects having become relaxed in older women.

Over time, human males have shown a preference for younger women in selecting mates, stacking the Darwinian deck against continued fertility in older women, the researchers have found.

"In a sense it is like ageing, but it is different because it is an all-or-nothing process that has been accelerated because of preferential mating," a professor  of Biology whose research specialities include the evolution of human diversity, said.

While conventional thinking has held that menopause prevents older women from continuing to reproduce, in fact, the researchers' new theory says it is the lack of reproduction that has given rise to menopause.
