📋Overview
This normal biological process occurs when the ovaries gradually decrease production of estrogen and progesterone, eventually leading to the final menstrual period. This transition marks the end of fertility and is a standard phase of the aging process. Common experiences during this time include physical changes such as hot flashes and night sweats, as well as emotional shifts. While the timing varies, most women reach this milestone in their late 40s or early 50s.
