During this phase the reproductive ability gradually comes to a cease. This is a transitionary phase in which woman under goes mental and physical\u00a0 changes indicating an entry into older years of life. Menopause is a physiological change accompanied by emotional disturbances. It\u00a0can be simply defined as the end of the last menstrual period. This natural transition generally occurs at the age of 45-55 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After woman enters into menopause there would be a decrease in estrogen secretion causing less growth of endometrial lining leading to decrease in flow. Eventually, cycles becoming longer with missed periods and little spotting. When there is no\u00a0 bleeding for almost a year we can consider that it\u2019s a sign of menopause<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">AYURVEDIC PERSPECTIVE<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Menopause is called \u201cRAJANIVRITI\u201d in Ayurveda. According to Ayurveda, menstrual cycle starts at 12 and ends at 50.This can vary based on the hereditary, diet and lifestyle factors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During this phase there will be a predominance of\u00a0 \u201cVATA\u201d and \u201cPITTA\u201d.
