What Is Menopause?

Menopause is the end of the menstrual cycle after a specific age among females. It usually occurs at the age of 40s or 50s when a woman has no menses or periods for at least one year. Menopause is a natural phenomenon, but it leads to hormonal fluctuations among females, which cause many adverse effects on their bodies.

In certain situations, women under 40 experience menopause for other reasons, such as when their ovaries or uterus are surgically removed for any reason, including uterine fibroids. To reduce the risk factors of menopause-related side effects, women should make some healthy changes to their daily routines. A little care can help women live a normal life after menopause and prevent osteoporosis and other disorders.

Symptoms Of Menopause

Different symptoms can appear when a female reaches menopause, including:

Causes Of Menopause

Menopause can occur due to the below-mentioned reasons.

Age

As a female reaches her 40s, there occurs a considerable decline in the female sex hormones, including estrogen and progesterone. The decreased level of estrogen and progesterone causes a decrease in fertility among females, slowly progressing to a complete loss of fertility and menopause.

When a female is around menopause, there occur changes in the blood flow during the menstrual cycle. In the late 40s, ovaries stop producing eggs, and it causes a complete loss of periods or menses, termed menopause.

Surgical Removal Of Ovaries And Uterus

Estrogen and progesterone are the two main female sex hormones that are responsible for regulating the menstrual cycle. Ovaries produce these hormones. Surgical removal of ovaries disturbs the normal production of these two main hormones, slowly progressing towards complete loss of the menstrual cycle. Removal of the uterus can also be the reason for menopause, but it cannot lead to immediate menopause as caused by the removal of ovaries.

Cancer Therapies

Therapies, including chemotherapy or radiation therapy, done to treat cancer can also be the reason for menopause among females. If radiation and chemicals are affecting the normal functioning of the ovaries either directly or indirectly causes the inadequate production of estrogen and progesterone, which cause menopause.
