Menopause is the point at which a woman stops ovulating and
menstruation ceases, indicating the end of fertility. Menopause is as
natural a progression in life as puberty.

hormone production begins to slow down when they reach their thirties,
and continues to diminish as they age. Many women experience few if any
symptoms during this time but others may suffer from some or all of the
following; anxiety, dry skin, fatigue, feelings of bloating, headaches,
heart palpitations, hot flashes, insomnia, irritability decreases
interest in sex, loss of concentration, mood swings, night sweats,
reduces stamina, urinary incontinence, vaginal dryness and itching and
weight gain.
