Understanding the Onset of Menopause

How does the menopause start? <br /><br />Officially, a woman is considered to have passed menopause  if she has not had a period (menstruation) for at least 12 months. In the period before menopause, a woman is in a state of premenopause. This phase is characterized by a decrease in the production of estrogen and progesterone by the ovaries, while ovulation becomes less frequent. <br /><br />#menopause #gynecology #menopausesymptoms #perimenopause #perimenopausesymptoms #signsofmenopause #signsofperimenopause #symptomsofmenopause #whatismenopause #nomenstruation
