Menopause is the name given to the condition that marks the end of the menstrual cycle. It occurs between the age of 45-55. It occurs due to the decrease in the secretion of sexual hormones such as estrogen and progesterone that also controls the menstrual cycles in a female.
The symptoms to determine menopause are –
· Heavy bleeding for a day to two
· Hot flashes
· Dryness in the vagina
· Sweating at night
· Loss of sexual desire
· Fatigue
· Pain and itching during sexual intercourse
· Sleeping issues
· Anxiety issues
This was some basic information about menopause. I hope this helps.
