What is Menopause?

Menopause marks the permanent end of menstruation and fertility due to the natural decline in estrogen and progesterone production by the ovaries. The transition occurs in three stages:

  • Perimenopause – The hormonal transition period before menopause.
  • Menopause – Confirmed after 12 consecutive months without menstruation.
  • Postmenopause – The years following menopause when long-term health monitoring becomes important.
