When does menopause happen?

For most women, the changes associated with menopause actually begin in the 40s as your ovaries’ limited supply of eggs decrease and hormone levels associated with reproduction start to change. Doctors often refer to this time as perimenopause, which means “around the time of menopause.”

Symptoms associated with hormonal changes increase as you get closer to the time of actual menopause (when your ovaries no longer have eggs available for fertilization and your menstrual period stops completely).

What health concerns are associated with menopause?

The loss of estrogen can increase your risk of:

  • Osteoporosis or decreasing bone density
  • Cardiovascular disease
  • Loss of bowel and bladder function
  • Alzheimer's disease
  • Decreased skin elasticity which leads to increased wrinkling
  • Loss of muscle tone

What are hormones?

Our bodies are made up of complex systems of organs, bones, and other structures that work as a team to keep us healthy and functioning at an optimal level. Hormones are substances secreted by glands to keep the systems working as they should. For instance, thyroxine is secreted by the thyroid gland and helps regulate your heartbeat and metabolism. Melatonin helps you sleep at night. Hormones secreted by your ovaries (estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone) control your menstrual cycle, fertility, heart health, bone health, and libido.

What causes hormone imbalance in Women?

Peri-Menopause and Menopause,  the most familiar causes of hormone imbalance, occurs when your body begins the natural process of winding down your reproductive years as your ovaries run out of their limited egg supply.  However, many women experience hormonal imbalances long before menopause. Poor nutrition, lack of exercise, not enough sleep, toxins, and other lifestyle factors can also throw hormone levels out of balance.

In addition, sometimes the gland responsible for producing the hormone just isn’t doing its job. For instance, hypothyroidism occurs when an underactive thyroid gland fails to secrete enough thyroxine. This can lead to lethargy, skin changes, and difficulty losing weight. However, hypothyroidism is also due to food sensitivities, gut imbalance, liver function, stress, and much more. Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) affects the precise balance of estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone supplied by the ovaries and can interfere with fertility.
