1. When does a woman enter menopause?

The transition period when a woman's ovarian function gradually declines from an active state and eventually stops functioning at all is what we usually call menopause. During this period, women will slowly transition from sexual maturity to old age, and will go through three stages in sequence: premenopause, menopause, and postmenopause. In terms of time span, it is two to five years before menopause to several years after menopause. At this time, women will experience a series of changes both physically and psychologically. Most can get through this smoothly, but a few will experience conditions that affect their physical and mental health.

2. Why do women have menopause?

The main reason for menopause is the significant deterioration of ovarian function, which leads to hormonal disorders.

1. The ovaries become smaller and no longer ovulate. At this time, estrogen secretion decreases, leading to ovarian degeneration, and may also cause coronary heart disease, hypertension, cerebrovascular accident or other senile mental illnesses.

2. The stimulation for the growth of epithelial cells, smooth muscle and connective tissue is reduced.

3. The autonomic nervous system is unstable. This is also the main reason why latent menopause occurs before real menopause.

4. The function of the cerebral cortex is affected and emotions become abnormal.

5. Increased osteoclast reabsorption leads to osteoporosis.
