Menopause itself does not directly cause kidney stones, but hormonal changes during this period can influence factors that may increase the risk. For instance, decreased estrogen levels can affect calcium metabolism and bone health, potentially leading to higher calcium levels in the urine, a risk factor for stone formation. Additionally, changes in fluid intake and diet during menopause may also contribute to an increased likelihood of developing kidney stones.
