Menopause Let's Embrace The Change of Life Together
THE 3 STAGES OF MENOPAUSE WHAT IS MENOPAUSE EXACTLY?
PERI-MENOPAUSE
Perimenopause occurs when a woman’s body begins the transition.
The approach of menopause is roughly 45 to 55 or about four years before the last period.
During the final stages of perimenopause, your body produces less and less estrogen, but it will still be possible to get pregnant.
MENOPAUSE
Menopause officially starts when the ovaries produce so little estrogen that eggs are no longer released, causing your periods to stop.
At this stage the function of the ovaries ceases and there is no chance of pregnancy.
It is the time when your period has specifially stopped for 12 months.
POST-MENOPAUSE
Generally, this occurs 24 to 36 months after your last period, and your symptoms begin to subside.
At this stage, menopausal symptoms, such as hot flashes, may ease.
Some women continue to experience menopausal symptoms for 10 years or longer after the menopause transition.
