Menopause is a natural phase of life that marks the end of a womanβs reproductive years. While it is a normal biological transition, the hormonal changes that accompany menopause can lead to physical, emotional, and mental health challenges. At eGynaecologist.com, we provide expert support and personalised care to help you manage menopause symptoms and maintain overall well-being.
Understanding Menopause
Menopause typically occurs between the ages of 45-55, though some women may experience early menopause due to genetics, medical conditions, or treatments like chemotherapy. The transition is divided into three phases:
πΉ Perimenopause β The years leading up to menopause where hormone levels fluctuate, causing symptoms like irregular periods, hot flashes, and mood swings.
πΉ Menopause β Defined as 12 months without a period, often accompanied by significant hormonal shifts.
πΉ Postmenopause β The years after menopause, where symptoms may continue, and health risks like osteoporosis and heart disease increase.
