Your body produces a variety of hormones throughout the month. The first hormone tells your ovaries to ovulate. Once the egg is released, it is released along with another hormone that tells your body to get ready for a fertilised egg. If no fertilised egg arrives, the uterine lining breaks down and you get a period. As your body starts menopause, two things happen: firstly you stop producing the hormone to tell you to ovulate and secondly your body runs out of eggs to ovulate. If your body doesn't think you've ovulated, you don't get a period. If your body is not producing the hormone naturally, then by giving it synthetic hormones (i.e. the pill) you are artificially tricking your body to think it's ovulated and you will get your period. That is how the Pill works - it prevents ovulation but still still gives the body the hormones it needs to go through the mentrual cycle. Many women use the Pill instead of other types of HRT (hormone replacement therapy) during the first years of peri-menopause so they can regulate their cycles and hormones while still preventing pregnancy (though their chances may be greatly reduced of getting pregnant). You will get your period if your body has the right hormones (natural or synthetic) at the right time, whether you have actually ovulated or not. However, you cannot get pregnant without ovulation.

Yes, you can go through menopause while using a Mirena IUD. Mirena is a hormonal intrauterine device primarily used for contraception and can also help manage heavy menstrual bleeding, but it does not prevent menopause. Menopause occurs when the ovaries stop producing eggs and hormones, and this natural process can happen regardless of contraceptive methods. However, some women may experience changes in their menstrual cycles while using Mirena as they approach menopause.

Do cats go through menopause?
No. Menopause is the period when women stop menstruating, and since cats do not menstruate in the first place, they cannot go through menopause. Only primates, such as humans and chimps, menstruate. (Cats will bleed a little while in heat, but this is part of the estrous cycle, which is not the same. Estrus in cats is closer to the period right after menstruation in humans.) They don't even go through menopause in the sense of ceasing to experience estrus; cats remain fertile throughout life.
