MENOPAUSE AND MENSTRUATION
Menopause:
When a woman’s period stops for 12 months or longer, she has reached menopause, and can no longer become pregnant. Some people refer to menopause as the “change.” This stage in a woman’s life is natural, usually occurring around age 50. However, all women are unique and move through the stages of menopause at different times in their lives. As menopause approaches, many women experience symptoms of hot flashes, irregular periods, vaginal dryness, hair loss, and mood swings.

Menstruation:
Menstruation, also known as having your period, is a normal, healthy part of being a woman. It is common for young girls to experience their first period between the ages of 9 and 16. Each month a woman’s uterus loses its lining, causing the flow of blood through the vagina. Menstruation lasts from 3 to 7 days. Discomfort, including cramps and bloating, may occur for some women right before or during menstruation.
