The peri-menopause is
the stage in a woman’s life when she begins the long journey into the
menopause. The menopause is also called the transition or the change of life.
The peri-menopause ,
when the production of the female hormones estrogen and progesterone
begins to decline starts from the age of forty and can last for as short as 5
years or as long as 10 years. Though the menopause is a new phase in a woman’s
life and every woman should look forward to it, the perimenopause however is something else because it comes
with a lot of symptoms that could be
both disturbing and debilitating if not
well managed.
