menopause definition

menopause definition Menopause is the physiological or iatrogenic cessation
of menstrual cycles (amenorrhea) due to decreasing
ovarian function (consumption of all viable follicles).
Average onset of menopause in women is 50.5
years. The physiologic menopause is established when
menses have been absent for one year. Menopausal
symptoms can range from nonexistent to severe and
last from a few months up to ten years or more. Major
symptoms of the perimenopause are hot flushes (vasomotor
origin), vaginal discomfort and bladder symptoms.
