Researchers found sudden shifts in health markers around menopause in data from more than one million women in the United States and Israel.

The study analyzed more than 300 million lab tests and separated the effects of age from the timing of menopause.

Changes appeared in bone, liver and kidney measures, blood chemistry and blood fats; some iron and hemoglobin levels rose as menstrual bleeding stopped.

The shifts were not seen in men of similar ages, suggesting they may be linked to menopause rather than aging alone.
