About Menopause
Menopause refers to the time in a woman’s life when she stops having a menstrual period and is no longer fertile. The time leading up to menopause is called the menopausal transition, or perimenopause. Typically, menopause occurs between ages 45 and 55, with the average age of menopause at age 51. However, it occurs earlier in some women, and women who smoke may go through menopause earlier than women who don’t smoke.
The National Institutes for Health emphasize that perimenopause can begin several years earlier when levels of estrogen and progesterone first begin to fluctuate. Surgical or medical menopause is the term for a decrease in estrogen that is a result of surgery to remove the ovaries or uterus, or medical treatments such as chemotherapy or hormone
Menopause Symptoms Effect on the Workplace
