Most female patients are familiar with the term menopause. The name is almost self explainitory with a textbook definition meaning the stop, or pause, of menstruation, as the name would suggest. Menopause occurs at different times for different patients but typically occurs during the late 40s to early 50s. However, there is a little more to menopause than meets the eye and can be broken down into the following areas:
Early Menopause
Premature or early-onset menopause happens when a woman reaches menopause in her 30’s. Some reasons for this include premature ovarian failure, chemotherapy, radiation, or a surgical procedure that removes the ovaries.
Perimenopause
Perimenopause is an early stage of the transition leading up to Menopause. During Perimenopause, many women begin experiencing hot flashes, night sweats, mood changes, difficulty sleeping, brain fog, and other symptoms.
Menopause
Menopause marks the end of a woman’s reproductive years when menstrual cycles cease and the ovaries stop releasing eggs. The transition into menopause usually begins in the mid-40s and lasts 5 to 8 years. During this time, the production of estrogen and progesterone in the ovaries declines.
Post Menopause
Post-menopause is the phase after Menopause. Due to hormonal and metabolic changes, women are at increased risk for weight gain, bone fractures, heart disease, osteoporosis, vaginal dryness/atrophy, and possibly diabetes.
It is not uncommon for menopause to coincide with difficult emotional situations and life stressors. Our compassionate menopause specialists will assess your symptoms and run diagnostics to determine the best strategy for helping you regain control of your health.
