Menopause is the natural and permanent end of a woman’s menstrual periods.
It typically occurs between the ages of 45 and 55.
Menopause signifies the end of her reproductive years.
It is caused by a decline in the hormones estrogen and progesterone.
This triggers symptoms like hot flashes, sleep difficulties, and mood changes during the years leading up to it, known as the perimenopause.
