Post Menopause Symptoms
A woman is said to have reached menopause when she’s not had a menstrual cycle for the previous 12 months. When a woman in the premenopausal stage her hormones are fluctuating between highs and lows quite frequently. The estrogen and progesterone are declining and her body is going through many changes both physically and emotionally. When she’s on this wild roller coaster ride called perimenopause, she may be thinking that as soon as she reaches menopause the symptoms will subside and life will settle down to a new normal. To some extent that is true but she will still have to deal with some post menopause symptoms. They won’t be as “earth shattering” as the premenopause symptoms she’s dealt with in the past, but they still may be noticeable for her.
