Introduction: Menopause is a period of menstrual cessation that occurs in women aged 48 to 55 years. Menopause is the cessation of ovulation caused by the absence of an oocyte response to the ovaries (ovaries) characterized by a decrease in estrogen and progesterone. Menopausal women or even peri-menopause become anxious about their partner, namely husband. Menopausal or perimenopausal women will become insecure if there is a change in the attitude of the husband toward his wife after entering this period. There needs to be a model to prepare menopausal women to face the detrimental effects of the reduction of estrogen both in terms of physical and psychological changes. The objective of this study is to identify and to explain the symptom of menopause and to explore their internet accessibility in searching for health information.
