Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Night sweats are the symptom of sweating excessively during sleep, while hot flashes are the sensation of heat spreading through the body, often accompanied by sweating. Both these occur during menopause, which generally happens during the climacteric stage of a woman's life. Therefore, option A is the correct answer. Option B is incorrect as climacteric is just another term used for menopause. Option C is incorrect as hot flashes are a symptom of menopause, and climacteric does not cause hot flashes. Option D is incorrect as anovulation refers to the lack of ovulation in a menstrual cycle, and night sweats are not a direct result of anovulation.
