Estrogen plays an important role in modulating the body's immune response. Considering the COVID-19 pandemic, it is important to assess women with hypoestrogenism, their symptoms and their relationship to COVID-19. Objective: To compare the climacteric symptomatology between women who had and those who did not have COVID 19. Methods: Observational, cross-sectional study, carried out between August and December 2021, with data collection virtually. 47 climacteric women were recruited from Santa Cruz/RN and neighboring cities, aged between 40 and 65 years. The assessment instruments used were: identification form, STRAW classification (Stages of Reproductive Aging Workshop), Greene's Climacteric Scale (ECG), Menopause Rating Scale (MRS) and a questionnaire about COVID-19. Statistical analysis used SPSS version 20.0 and inferential statistics with the Mann-Whitney test. A significance test p<0.05 was adopted. Results: 37.8% of the women were perimenopausal, with a higher mean score on the ECG psychological subscale of 15(±8.5) points. In the MRS, the average of the total classification of symptoms was 15.93(±9.65), with the psychological domain having 6.42(±4.28) points with the highest score. Regarding COVID-19, 14 volunteers reported having the disease and 8 reported post-COVID-19 complications. There was no statistically significant relationship between having or not having COVID-19. Conclusion: It was observed climacteric symptoms of mild to moderate intensity, with emphasis on the psychological domain, and in relation to the involvement of covid-19, when comparing the groups, there was no difference between the climacteric symptoms.Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Brazilhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/br/EstrogênioClimatérioSintomasCOVID-19bachelorThesis
