📋Overview
Menopause is the natural, permanent cessation of menstrual periods resulting from the decline in ovarian function and reduced production of estrogen and progesterone. It marks the end of a woman's reproductive years. The term 'menopause' refers to the time of the final menstrual period and the subsequent months without menstruation. It is a normal biological process, not a disease.
