World Menopause Day



The menopause is defined as the permanent cessation of menstruation, determined retrospectively after 12 months of amenorrhoe. Natural menopause results from ovarian failure and resultant oestrogen deficiency; the menopause can also be induced by surgery, chemotherapy or radiation. The menopause occurs at a median age of 51 years, varying from 40-58 years. Various factors affect the age at which the menopause occurs including : smoking (may occur up to 2 years earlier), low sosioeconomic status, age at menarche, parity, ethnicity, previous oral contraceptive use and family history. While the menopause is a normal event in a woman's life, some women experience health effects that may require healthcare professional input.
