About Menopause

Menopause occurs when a woman’s ovaries stop producing hormones, typically between 45 and 55 years of age. This transition is marked by a decline in oestrogen levels, which can cause hot flushes, mood swings, sleep disturbances, and other physical or emotional changes. Understanding the process helps in managing symptoms effectively.

Treatments can help when symptoms significantly affect daily life. Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and non-hormonal alternatives may alleviate discomfort and improve overall wellbeing. Consulting a healthcare professional ensures the most suitable approach for individual needs.

Stages of Menopause

Menopause is a gradual process and usually divided into three stages:

  • Perimenopause: Hormone levels fluctuate, often causing irregular periods, hot flushes, anxiety, and sleep changes. This phase may last several years.
  • Menopause: Diagnosed after 12 consecutive months without a menstrual period.
  • Postmenopause: The years following menopause, during which some symptoms improve, but others such as vaginal dryness, low mood, or joint pain may continue and benefit from ongoing support.
