WHAT IS MENOPAUSE?

Menopause is a normal condition that all women experience as they age.

The term “menopause” can describe any of the changes a woman goes through either just before or after she stops menstruating, marking the end of her reproductive period.

WHAT CAUSES MENOPAUSE?

A woman is born with a finite number of eggs, which are stored in the ovaries. The ovaries also make the hormones estrogen and progesterone, which control menstruation and ovulation.

Menopause happens when the ovaries no longer release an egg every month and menstruation stops.

Menopause is a normal part of aging and occurs in every woman after the age of 40. However, Premature Menopause can occur in some women as a result of hysterectomy or damage to the ovaries due to Chemotherapy.

HOW DOES NATURAL MENOPAUSE OCCUR?

Natural menopause is not brought on by any type of medical or surgical treatment. The process is gradual and has three stages:

Perimenopause: This typically begins several years before menopause, when the ovaries gradually make less estrogen. This lasts up until menopause, the point when the ovaries stop releasing eggs and many women start having menopause symptoms

Menopause: This is the point when it’s been a year since a woman last had her last menstrual period. At this stage, the ovaries have stopped releasing eggs and making most of their estrogen.

Post menopause: These are the years after menopause. During this stage, menopausal symptoms ease for most women. But health risks related to the loss of estrogen rise as the woman ages.

WHAT CAUSES PREMATURE MENOPAUSE?

Premature menopause can be the result of genetics, autoimmune disorders, or medical procedures. Other conditions that may cause early menopause include:

Premature ovarian failure: Caused by changes in the levels of estrogen & progesterone produced by the ovaries that prematurely stop the ovaries from releasing eggs. Premature ovarian failure is not always permanent.

Induced menopause: This happens when the ovaries are surgically removed for medical reasons, such as uterine cancer or as a result from damage to the ovaries caused by radiation or chemotherapy.
