Help with Premenopause

Most women on average start menopause at age 51. Premenopause can start much earlier at 37 or 38. Should this happen, alot women could require help with premenopause.

Pre menopause symptoms often start in women from the age of 37 or 38 in our (western) cultures. Often, however, these first signs of menopause are not experienced by women until the age of 40.

The first signs of menopause are called peri menopause.

The word peri means 'around', though given that menopause officially starts when periods stop for good, this stage covers a long time.

Women with pre menopause symptoms often have erratic periods for up to eight years before they stop. And the only true guage a woman has of knowing whether her periods have stopped is after a year of no menstruation.

During this period when a woman's menstrual cycle becomes unpredictable, there are also other changes to her period. Some women's period becomes lighter or shorter, and some experience a heavier or longer blood flow. Not very many women stop menstruating all of a sudden, though this can happen in some cases, even without an early menopause brought about by other factors like surgery or chemotherapy. This abrubt cessation is not typical of pre menopause symptoms, however.

The reason for irregular periods in peri menopause is that women begin to skip ovulating in some months. In ovulation in regular menstrual cycles, women start out with what is called a primordial follicle. Every month, about 6 to 12 primordial follicles, with the ovum inside, start to grow into what is called a primary follicle. These two hormones are termed follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), and luteinizing hormone (LH).

So, at a certain stage of development, these 6-12 primary follicles start to cluster a fluid inside them. This estrogen, in conjunction with FSH and LH, cause further growth of the primary follicles.

This means it secretes more estrogen within it, which leads to even further accelerated growth for it.
