Permanent cessation of menses, known as menopause, is the natural biological process marking the end of a woman's reproductive years. It is characterized by the complete cessation of menstrual periods for 12 consecutive months, typically occurring between the ages of 45 and 55. Menopause results from a decline in ovarian function and a decrease in hormone production, particularly estrogen and progesterone. This transition can lead to various physical and emotional symptoms, including hot flashes, mood changes, and changes in sexual function.
