Pre Menopause

Pre menopause is the physiological termination of normal menstrual cycles. Pre menopause is generally caused more early than the normal age which is associated with the cessation of the menstrual cycles. Pre menopause occurs when the ovaries virtually stops producing the estrogen which generally leads the fertility aspect of the women to shut down.

Pre menopause leads to various psychological symptoms like the mood swings, anxiety, depression, loss of memory power, lack of concentration etc. Certain physical symptoms can also be recognized during pre menopause like vaginal dryness, sore breasts, sudden gain in weight, headache, light or sometimes very heavy menstrual periods and frequent urination etc.

Pre menopause generally occurs before a woman reaches the age of 40 years. Pre menopause can be estimated to have occurred only in 1% of the woman folk. Proper diagnosis of pre menopause symptoms can be availed out with proper diagnosis of estrogen supplements. Thus pre menopause is virtually a period when the woman's body crosses the age markers which is normal to be noticed in the aged woman but it appears in this respect before 10-15 years of the actual age.
