Age

The average age of menopause in the Western world is 51 years, and the normal age range for the occurrence of menopause is somewhere between the age of 45 and 55.

Last period ever occurring between the ages of 55 to 60 is known as a "late menopause". An "early menopause" on the other hand is defined as last period ever between the age of 40 to 45.

Rarely the ovaries stop working at a very early age, anywhere from the age of puberty to age 40, and this is known as premature ovarian failure (POF), also commonly referred to as "premature menopause". 1% of women experience POF, and it is not considered to be due to the normal effects of aging. Some known causes of premature menopause include autoimmune disorders, thyroid disease, diabetes mellitus, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy. However, in the majority of spontaneous cases of premature menopause, the cause is unknown.

Premature menopause is diagnosed or confirmed by measuring the levels of follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH); the levels of these hormones will be abnormally high if menopause has occurred. Rates of premature menopause have been found to be significantly higher in fraternal and identical twins; approximately 5% of twins reach menopause before the age of 40. The reasons for this are not completely understood. Transplants of ovarian tissue between identical twins have been successful in restoring fertility.

What is menopause?

Menopause is the complete shutting down of the female reproductive system. The word literally means the permanent physiological, or natural, cessation of menstrual cycles, from the Greek roots 'meno' (month) and 'pausis' (cessation). In other words, menopause is the natural and permanent stopping of the monthly female reproductive cycles, and in human females who still have a uterus, this is traditionally indicated by a permanent absence of monthly periods or menstruation. The break-up in the pattern of the menstrual cycles not only causes the levels of most of the reproductive hormones to drop over time, but also causes the reproductive hormones to fall out of phase with one another, which often leads to extreme and unpredictable fluctuations in the levels, which itself can cause numerous effects in many women, such as hot flashes.

After a number of years of erratic functioning, the ovaries almost completely stop producing progesterone and two out of the three estrogen hormones: estradiol and estriol. Estrone is one estrogen which is still produced in reasonable amounts in post-menopausal women. Testosterone levels decrease; however, a decrease in testosterone levels begins gradually in young adulthood. Testosterone levels are thought not to drop significantly during the menopause transition because the stroma of the postmenopausal ovary and the adrenal gland still continue to secrete small amounts of testosterone, even during post-menopause.

Because of the various hormonal changes, the reproductive system ceases to function.

Menopause is the end of the reproductive years rather than the beginning, and thus it is the opposite of menarche. Nonetheless, it can usefully be compared with that event. The menopause transition years are in many ways similar to puberty in reverse. The psychological and social challenges of the Change are also somewhat similar to those encountered during adolescence.

Menopausal Symptoms

At some point in every woman's life, her hormone production drops below the level required to continue her periods. Some women welcome the end to monthly bleeding, bloating, and inconvenience. But others find that menopause:

* affects their sex life
* triggers mood swings
* causes debilitating hot flashes,
* can take them down the road to bone and heart problems

If menopause happens suddenly (caused by breast cancer treatment), leading to uncomfortable side effects and even dashed hopes of having a baby, it can feel like a disease even worse than breast cancer. It's these menopausal changes that may interfere most with day-to-day quality of life.

There are different kinds of menopause. If you have breast cancer, it is important to understand which kind of menopause you may be experiencing:

* natural menopause, a normal part of the aging process
* medical or surgical menopause that is the result of chemotherapy or ovary removal
* "cold turkey" menopause that is the result of being taken off menopausal hormone therapy after you were diagnosed with breast cancer

But the good news is that there are ways to manage symptoms and live more comfortably with menopause.

FAQ

When to use Menoaid?
For use in natural & surgical menopause conditions.

How does Menoaid work?
The phytoestrogens in Menoaid act through estrogen dependant receptors by binding to the receptors and producing estrogenic effects. The increase in comfort levels can be attributed to the increasing hormonal levels. The phytoestrogens in Menoaid have significant advantages over synthetic estrogens.

What happens in menopause is that there is a decline in ovarian function and amounts of hormones produced by pituitary gland viz. follicle
stimulating hormone (FSH) and Lutinizing hormone (LH). The resulting low, and changing levels of ovarian hormones, particularly estrogen, are thought to be the cause of menopausal symptoms. Eventually, the amount of estrogen and progesterone that the ovaries product is no longer enough to bring on ovulation and keep monthly periods going and the periods become irregular.

A diminished level of estrogen has a direct effect on the hypothalamus, the part of the brain responsible for controlling appetite, sleep cycles, sex hormones, and body temperature. The drop in estrogen confuses the hypothalamus and in
dicates that body heat is higher than normal. The brain responds to this report by broadcasting an all-out alert to the heart, blood vessels, and nervous system. The message of getting rid of heat is transmitted by the nervous system's chemical messenger, epinephrine, and related compounds: norepinephrine, prostaglandin and serotonin. And then heart pumps faster, the blood vessels in the skin dilate to circulate more blood to radiate off the heat, and sweat glands release sweat to cool down the temperature.
