Menopause is a state which most of the middle age women start dreading. At around 45-55, sometimes earlier, a woman's ovaries run out of eggs. At the same time, the ovaries stop making the female hormones - oestrogen and progesterone - which greatly influence a woman's health and personality.
  • Withdrawal symptoms are experienced. The most obvious is that periods become irregular, and then stop.
  • For 80 per cent of women, their temperature control system goes on the brink, causing hot flushes and sweat. 
  • Feelings of listlessness, tiredness and irritability become common.
  • Feeling the various signs of ageing, including aches and pains, sudden wrinkles, dry hair and so on, will also increase.
  • Post-menopausal women are at greater risk of bad health in old age.
  • Osteoporosis (brittle bones), heart attacks and strokes are all common problems.
