Menopause

What is menopause?

Menopause is a natural transition that all women experience as they age. Technically, menopause is defined as the permanent end of menstruation and fertility, and is said to occur after 12 months of absence of menstrual periods.

The years leading up to menopause are called perimenopause. During this transitional time, usually starting in a woman's 40s, hormone levels begin to fluctuate and decline. As a result, women may experience various symptoms like hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, mood changes, trouble sleeping, and more.
