    "As women enter menopause, their levels of physical activity decrease; for years scientists were unable to determine why. Now, researchers from the University of Missouri have found a connection between lack of ovarian hormones and changes in the brain's pleasure center, a hot spot in the brain that processes and reinforces messages related to reward, pleasure, activity and motivation for physical exercise."
