Many middle-aged women are afraid of when it will happen and what symptoms they will have to deal with. Signs often appear years before.

In most cases, menopause begins as early as the age of 40 to 45, in some cases even earlier. For some, it can help them to better adjust if they know what happens in the body and what Symptoms become noticeable early on. Menopause in women (climacteric) begins more than ten years before the last menstrual period and does not end until long time later.
