The months/ years leading up to your menopause are referred to as perimenopause, meaning “around menopause”. This period may be marked by changes in your menstrual flow and in the length of the cycle. Perimenopause is a natural transition, but can be fraught with discomfort for some. Your hormone levels are changing, which start affecting everything from your skin and hair to body and mental health. At Adrita, our doctors help you prepare for this menopausal transition, so you can thrive in this new chapter of your life!
Menopause describes the stage of your life when your menstrual periods stop permanently, and you can no longer become pregnant. You are in menopause when you've gone 12 months without a period.
As you get older - in your 40s and 50s - your body produces less of the female hormones estrogen and progesterone. Your periods happen less often and eventually stop, and your ovaries stop producing eggs. The decline in your hormone levels can lead to physical and emotional symptoms associated with menopausal transition.
Menopause usually occurs between 45 to 55 years of age. Among Indian women, the average age for menopause in India is 46.6 years. The transition to menopause - the period during which your hormones gradually decline - can last between 4 to 10 years.
