MENOPAUSE, PERI-MENOPAUSE, BIO-IDENTICAL HORMONE THERAPY
Approximately 50 million American women are postmenopausal.
Menopause is the permanent cessation of menstruation following the loss of
ovarian activity. Perimenopause is the time immediately before and after menopause.
Menopause is a normal, natural event generally occurring between the ages
of 50 and 52, except when brought about by surgery, medications, or radiation.
The natural transition to the postmenopausal years is not necessarily a smooth
one. Though menopause is not a disease, there can be associated health problems.
Hormonal fluctuations may cause:
Hot flashes, night sweats, insomnia, palpitations
Depression and anxiety
Poor concentration and memory
Osteoporosis
Acne, facial hair, and hair loss
Vaginal dryness and thinning, and urinary dysfunction
Change in sexual response and sex drive
