Menopause is a natural transition that all women go through as they age. It marks the end of a woman's reproductive years and is defined as occurring 12 months after a woman's last menstrual period.
During perimenopause, which can begin up to 10 years before menopause, a woman's body experiences hormonal fluctuations as her ovaries produce less estrogen and progesterone. This decline in hormones causes symptoms like hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, irregular periods, mood changes, trouble sleeping, and more.
While menopause is a natural process, it can significantly impact a woman's quality of life. The good news is that the symptoms of menopause can be managed through hormone therapy (HT). With proper treatment from a qualified menopause specialist, women can find relief from discomforts and get back to enjoying life.
For women living in Yukon going through menopause, it's important to seek care from a trusted menopause doctor or endocrinologist menopause specialist. Getting proper diagnosis and individualized treatment is key to successfully managing symptoms.
