Hi KLA,
Go to Tools> Customize. Be sure the Main Menu is selected (which it should
be by default). Click reset.
If that doesn't do it, try testing your Normal template first and if that
doesn't do it, your Settings file, as follows:
(Since you didn't bother to state your OS or Word version numbers which
you should *always* do when you post I'm assuming you're in OS X Word X.)
1) Quit Word and navigate to your Normal template which should be in
/Applications/Microsoft Office X/Templates/. Rename Normal to something else
(like OldNormal), then relaunch Word. If this fixes the problem but you
have customizations, etc, in OldNormal that you want to maintain, you can
use Organizer to transfer those from OldNormal to the newly-created Normal
template. Then you can trash the old renamed file. To learn how to use
Organizer, see here (don't use Safari to view this site):

If this doesn't fix the problem, quit Word again, trash the new Normal and
rename OldNormal back to Normal.
2) To test your Preference files, quit *all* Office Applications.
Navigate to your ~/library/preferences/Microsoft folder. Rename the
Microsoft Component Preferences, Word Settings (10), and Microsoft Office
Settings (10) files. When you restart Word, these files will be recreated.
If all is well, you can trash the old files. You will have to reset some
Preferences and AutoCorrect settings.
If this doesn't help, you can trash the new files and rename the old ones
back.
