Understanding Menopause
An estimated 13 million women in India enter menopause each year. Menopause is the natural and permanent stoppage of a woman’s menstrual cycle, marking the end of her reproductive years (Rodrı́guez-Landa & Cueto‐Escobedo, 2017).
Menstruation should be absent for a period of 12 months without any other pathological or physiological cause to be considered as menopause (Porter & Rees, 2002). This transition from reproductive to non-reproductive life is accompanied by hormonal changes, particularly a decline in the production of estrogen and progesterone by the ovaries.
