                Menopause is the permanent end of menstrual periods and thus of fertility.

                For up to several years before and just after menopause, estrogen levels fluctuate widely, periods become irregular, and symptoms (such as hot flashes) may occur.
                After menopause, bone density decreases.
                Menopause is diagnosed when a woman has not had a period for 1 year, but blood tests may be done to confirm it.
                Certain measures, including hormone therapy and other drugs, can lessen symptoms.

                During the reproductive years, menstrual periods usually occur in approximately monthly cycles, with an egg released from the ovary (ovulation) about 2 weeks after the first day of a period. For this cycle to occur regularly, the ovaries must produce enough of the hormones estrogen and progesterone .
                Menopause occurs because as women age, the ovaries stop producing estrogen and progesterone . During the years before menopause, production of estrogen and progesterone begins to fluctuate, and menstrual periods and ovulation occur less often. Eventually, menstrual periods and ovulation end permanently, and pregnancy can no longer occur naturally. A woman’s last period can be identified only later, after she has had no periods for at least 1 year. (Women who do not wish to become pregnant should use birth control until 1 year has passed since their last menstrual period.)
                Perimenopause refers to the several years before and the 1 year after the last menstrual period. How many years of perimenopause precede the last menstrual period varies greatly. During perimenopause, estrogen and progesterone levels fluctuate widely. These fluctuations are thought to cause the menopausal symptoms experienced by many women in their 40s.
                The menopausal transition is the part of perimenopause that leads up to the last menstrual period. It is characterized by changes in the pattern of menstrual periods. The menopausal transition lasts from 4 to 8 years. It lasts longer in women who smoke and in women who were younger when it began.
                Postmenopause refers to the time after the last menstrual period.
                In the United States, the average age for menopause is about 52. However, menopause may occur normally in women aged 45 (or even 40) to age 55 or older. Menopause may start at a younger age in women who

                Smoke
                Live at a high altitude
                Are malnourished

                Menopause is considered premature when it occurs before age 40. Premature menopause is also called premature ovarian failure or primary ovarian insufficiency.
