Detailed description

Menopause, defined as the final menstrual period, physiologically results from the natural depletion of ovarian follicular function; a condition that translates into permanent amenorrhea (the permanent cessation of menstrual flow) generally associated with aging. Many women have few or no symptoms, and thus, these women are not necessarily in need of medical treatment. The signs and symptoms of menopause are characterized by onset of irregular menses, hot flushes and night sweats. Menopause is also known to be associated with changes in behavior and other biological functions e.g., mood swings, anxiety, stress, forgetfulness and sleep disturbances
