MENOPAUSE
Menopause is a natural biological process that occurs in women as they age. It marks the end of a woman’s reproductive years and is typically characterized when a woman’s ovaries stop producing eggs, which means that her body produces less estrogen and progesterone. Menopause is usually diagnosed when a woman has gone without a menstrual period for 12 consecutive months.
The average age for menopause in American women is 52, however, menopause is a gradual process. The production of sex hormones tends to decline months or even years before menopause, during a phase called perimenopause. This phase can cause irregular periods and various symptoms associated with menopause.

Aside from the physical symptoms, the hormonal fluctuations during perimenopause and menopause can also impact bone health and heighten the likelihood of bone loss, which may potentially lead to osteoporosis.
MENOPAUSE TREATMENTS
If you think you may be experiencing menopause, Treatment options for menopause may include hormone replacement therapy, lifestyle changes, and medications to manage specific symptoms.
Estrogen therapy can help to alleviate these symptoms by increasing and replacing the estrogen levels the body is no longer producing. Can also help reduce the risk of cardiac disease and stroke, dementia, diabetes, and loss of bone density leading to osteoporosis,
