Frequently Asked Questions

Menopause happens on 1 day, which is the 1 year anniversary from your last menstrual period. It usually occurs between ages of 45-55 and in North America the average age is 52 years.

The terms Perimenopause, Menopause and Postmenopause are often used interchangeably but in fact define different time frames in a woman's life. Symptomatic years before Menopause are considered Perimenopause, Menopause is the day that marks 12 months from your last menstrual period and anything after Menopause is considered Postmenopause.

Early symptoms often include irregular periods, sleep disruption, brain fog and mood changes. Vaginal dryness and vasomotor symptoms (hot flashes and night sweats) typically occur in mid to late Perimenopause.

Symptoms often last between 7 to 10 years. This timeframe can vary quite significantly between women within and between different races and ethnicities. For example vasomotor symptoms (hot flashes and night sweats) tend to last longer and be more severe in African American and Hispanic women compared to Caucasian women and have the lowest duration and prevalence in Asian women.

Hormonal fluctuations, particularly declines in estrogen (estradiol) can impact our muscle mass and metabolic function. During perimenopause, more women notice difficulty maintaining or losing weight despite using strategies that have worked for them in the past. There are often other factors that increase your risk of weight gain such as sleep disturbances, fatigue and lower motivation for physical activity.
