Menopause signals a transition in a woman’s reproductive cycle, marking the end of menstruation and fertility. The average age of menopause is 51, but it can occur from the late 30s to mid 50s. As estrogen levels decline, many women experience uncomfortable or disruptive symptoms lasting months or years.
