Menopause. Your Questions Answered by Internal Specialist, Dr. Mera

Doctor I am 49 years old, and last year I have missed my periods over 7 months, is this a beginning of menopause?

Menopause is a biological process that occurs when a woman’s ovaries stop releasing mature eggs and her body produces less estrogen and progesterone.

Your doctor or gynecologist can also help determine if you’re beginning menopause. They’ll ask about your symptoms, track your cycle, and possibly conduct a few tests.

Menopause usually begins between the ages of 40 and 60, though it’s most common for it to start around age 51. It’s likely to have begun if you haven’t had a period in over six months. It’s clinically confirmed after 12 full months without a period.
