Menopause
Menopause occurs when your ovaries stop making estrogen. When this happens, you stop having periods and it marks the end of your reproductive years. Other symptoms of declining estrogen include hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, and urinary tract changes. The average age of menopause is 51 years.
Hormone replacement therapy is the treatment for most symptoms of menopause. There are different types and formulations depending on your particular symptoms.
