At Community Health Network, we understand that every woman’s menopause journey is unique. We take a whole-person approach, recognizing that it can affect many aspects of a woman’s physical, emotional and mental well-being.
Our menopause wellness physicians provide:
The menopause journey is a natural transition in a woman’s life, marked by shifting and gradually declining hormone levels. This transition unfolds in stages and can bring a range of physical and emotional changes, which vary from woman to woman.
Perimenopause, often referred to as the transition to menopause, occurs when your body's production of estrogen/progesterone rises and falls, and you move to the end of your reproductive years. Many of the changes experienced during this time are linked to hormonal dysregulation, which often leads to common symptoms that can last for several years. The average amount of time spent in perimenopause is four years. You may notice signs sometime in your 40s, but some women may notice them as early as their mid to late 30s. While this is a natural process, every woman's experience is unique, and the timing can vary.
When you’ve gone a full 12 months without having your menstrual cycle, you’ve officially entered menopause. Once you are at this stage, you can no longer bear children. Many women experience menopause between the ages of 44-55, but some women experience it earlier.
You may also experience menopause if your ovaries have been surgically removed, which is known as surgical menopause. It can be a more sudden process that occurs more rapidly after surgery rather than over several years.
Perimenopause and menopause can cause a variety of symptoms among women. Symptoms can be influenced by a woman’s genetics as well as external factors, such as race and ethnicity, culture, lifestyle, and environment.
Below is a list of common symptoms women may experience during this midlife transition.
No matter what symptoms you are experiencing, we encourage you to reach out to an Ob/Gyn for support and care.
Together with your physician, you'll determine the best treatment plan based on the severity of your symptoms, your health history, and your personal preferences. All our Ob/Gyns can treat your menopause symptoms. However, if you are experiencing complex or high-risk symptoms, our team will internally refer you to our menopause certified providers for advanced care when appropriate.
No matter what stage of the menopause journey you are experiencing, we start your treatment with a comprehensive assessment that includes:
