Does menopause last a lifetime

Menopause does not last a lifetime.

Menopause is the transition from gradual decline to complete loss of fertility, usually between the ages of 45 and 55. During this period, women go through a series of physical and psychological changes, such as irregular menstruation, hot flashes, mood swings, etc., which are mainly caused by the gradual decline of ovarian function, resulting in a decrease in estrogen levels.

Although menopause may cause some discomfort to women, it is a natural physiological process that does not last a lifetime. Over time, the symptoms of menopause usually ease or disappear. Most women adjust to new hormone levels within a few years after menopause, and symptoms ease.
