Menopause signals a transition in a woman's reproductive life, marking the end of menstrual cycles and fertility. The hallmark sign is 12 consecutive months without a period. The years leading up to menopause are called perimenopause, which can start 8-10 years before menopause when hormone levels begin fluctuating.
Symptoms vary but often include:
While a natural process, menopause can significantly impact one's quality of life. Proper treatment and management can alleviate symptoms and help women transition smoothly.
Careful monitoring and therapy (see below) can mitigate these effects.
Doctors may check thyroid function, cholesterol, and bone density as well. Tracking symptoms and getting tested helps optimize treatment.
Seeing a menopause specialist enables customized care to ease this transition and improve long-term health.
Catching and addressing issues early optimizes outcomes.
Restoring balance means finding one's best self again.
