Menopause
As women enter their forties and fifties, their estrogen levels undergo heavy fluctuations and eventually drop. As these hormone levels deplete, most women notice that their periods become unpredictable, whether heavier, lighter, shorter or longer than usual. Another noticeable change is the distance of time between periods, which will grow until a woman begins skipping her periods and eventually stops having them all together.
During menopause, a woman’s ovaries stop producing eggs over time and produce fewer female sex hormones until they reach a point where they can no longer get pregnant naturally.
Symptoms of menopause are lengthy and vary from woman to woman. Some symptoms include hot flashes, mood swings, mental fog, lower libido, vaginal dryness, mental health issues, frequent urination, and more.
While there are many downsides, menopause happens to every menstruating woman and is caused by the natural fluctuation and depletion of hormones in the body.
