Personalized Treatment for Perimenopause,
Menopause & Sexual Health
Menopause is a natural transition in a woman's reproductive life that typically occurs between the ages of 45 and 55, with the median age of around 51. For many women, this phase can signify the beginning of a wonderful new stage in life, characterized by steadier hormone levels and the end of menstruation, which can feel liberating.
However, many women experience bothersome symptoms due to declining levels of estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone from their ovaries. Common symptoms associated with menopause include hot flashes, night sweats, sleep disturbances, mood changes, mental fog, joint pain, vaginal dryness, and urinary issues.
