Hormonal change starts at puberty evolving to womanhood in regular monthly cycles of ovulation and menstruation. Childbearing may interrupt this process, pregnancy and lactation are normal phrases progressing
to:

Pre-menopausal.

This is a time of irregular ovulation and monthly menstruation; when many natural and normal body changes will take place, this may last for five to ten years.

Menopause:

The final cycle that a woman enters in her reproductive life, ovulation and menstruation cease.

The many changes that take place may be overwhelming at times whilst they are natural and normal. The decreasing level of hormones give rise to mood swings, flushes, weight gain, spotting, flooding vagina and breast changes.

This normal occurring change that the body undergoes should not be seen as a disease.

Support throughout the pre-menopausal and menopausal cycles can be given by correct body balance, diet and exercise giving renewed vigour and confidence.
