What Causes Poor Attention Post Menopause?

I went through menopause 15 years ago. Currently, I am having problems focusing, unable to read an entire article at one sitting, etc. My therapist has suggested that this might be a lingering sign of menopause. I have never heard of such a thing. It was my understanding that you went through menopause, had the hot flashes and ultimately, were done. Any thoughts?

HI
Well come to HCM
This is almost 15 years has gone since you had menopause and this may not be due to menopause but this could be due to some nonspecific reason because symptoms might be limited up to the reading only, some time over consciousness, hurry may cause this type of reading difficulty, else this is nothing to worry, try relaxation therapy, hope this information helps, take care.
