- During the course of That 70's Show, Kitty shows signs of menopause until an episode during season five where she reveals that she has started menopause. It is referenced many times through out the series, often as a running joke.
- Menopause is the life phase in females where their menstrual cycles start becoming less regular until the production of eggs for fertilization stops completely. It generally occurs in females in their 40s, although some women continue to menstruate until their reach their 50s. The change in hormone cycles during this period of life often cause other neurological and physical symptoms, such as mood swings and hot flashes. Hormone replacement therapy can often ameliorate these symptoms.
- Menopause was a stage of the Human female reproductive cycle that occurred mid-life as the ovaries stopped producing estrogen, causing the reproductive system to gradually shut down. The Betazoid phase was similar to the Human menopause, but unlike with menopause, a Betazoid female became fully sexual as her sex drive increased fourfold or more. (TNG: "Manhunt" )
- MEN-O-PAUSE. Follow the instructions guys. Menopause is the time in a woman's life when she stops being sexy at all. Menopause is named because when a man looks at a woman who is in menopause, he will pause while her non-sexiness registers in the big brain lobe that controls the man's little brain. The average processing time of this information is 1.67 seconds, the so-called pause, after which the pause ends and the man does not become sexually aroused.

The change in hormone cycles during this period of life often cause other neurological and physical symptoms, such as mood swings and hot flashes. Hormone replacement therapy can often ameliorate these symptoms. There have been several instances on House when women facing imminent menopause become almost desperate to have children. This was a major theme in the episode Fetal Position, where the patient refused an abortion even though the odds of the fetus surviving were negligible. Lisa Cuddy has also tried to have a child, and has suffered a Miscarriage in the attempt.
- MEN-O-PAUSE. Follow the instructions guys. Menopause is the time in a woman's life when she stops being sexy at all. Menopause is named because when a man looks at a woman who is in menopause, he will pause while her non-sexiness registers in the big brain lobe that controls the man's little brain. The average processing time of this information is 1.67 seconds, the so-called pause, after which the pause ends and the man does not become sexually aroused. Menopause symptoms include hot flashes, sagging breasts, uncontrollable pubic hair growth, and the undeniable urge to hug all children under 12 years old. Leading feminologists have theorized that fat and/or ugly women are actually stuck in menopause, but scientists have been too busy inventing spandex bodysuits, pheromones, and pornography to care enough to investigate. In the United States and elsewhere, menopausaul women have their own organization, the Menopausal Alliance Doing Damage, or MADD. MADD is a neo-fascist conglomoration of menopausal women who hate the environment, hate freedom and hate pleasure, and are bent on destruction and the establishment of a dictatorial nanny state; it is no surprise that MADD was allied with the Nazis during World War II, the Soviets during the Cold War, and al-Qaeda during the War on Terror.
