Menopause

Menopause refers to the end of your period as a result of hormonal changes brought on by aging. When you go 12 months without having a period, you are considered to be in menopause. 

Menopause isn't the only cause of irregular periods; if you're experiencing pre-menopause symptoms like irregular or heavy periods, you should get checked out to rule out other possibilities like tumors and hormone-related diseases and conditions.

Menopause is an age-related change that cannot be "cured." There are, however, treatments for specific symptoms like fatigue, moodiness, and hot flashes.

Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is one of the most common treatments for women who are approaching or are in the midst of menopause. Hormones are involved in a variety of processes that help women maintain their health.

HRT works by replacing hormones that have depleted during premenopause, allowing women to alleviate many of the symptoms of premenopause while also assisting in the restoration of normal body function.
