MENOPAUSE COULD BE A WOMANS WORST NIGHTMARE !! Clinically speaking, menopause is defined as a specific date. Assuming the woman still has a uterus, menopause is defined as the day after the womans final episode of menstrual flow finishes. This date is fixed retrospectively, once 12 months have gone by with no menstrual flow at all. At this point a woman is considered to be one year into postmenopause, is considered to be infertile, and no longer needs to take into consideration the possibility of pregnancy. In common parlance, however, the word menopause usually refers not to just one day, but to the whole of the menopause transition years. This span of time is also commonly called the change of life, the change, or the climacteric and more recently is known as perimenopause, (literally meaning around menopause). The word menopause is also often used in popular parlance to mean all the years of postmenopause. Did I hear you say, what are some of the signs and symptoms ?
