How many months without menstruation is considered menopause

Menopause occurs when a woman is about 50 years old and has not had a period for 12 months or more. Menopause is a normal physiological period for women. As the ovarian function declines, the ovarian secretion of estrogen and progesterone decreases, which does not allow the endometrium to undergo cyclic changes, and at first it will manifest as menstrual disorders, usually once every 2-3 months, gradually transitioning to no menstruation for more than half a year, which will lead to amenorrhea. Women should not be overly nervous after menopause, which may lead to some abnormalities, such as hot flashes, night sweats, irritability and facial discoloration, osteoporosis, women can divert their attention appropriately, pay attention to eating more fresh vegetables, fruits and meat, fish, shrimp, etc., and keep a relaxed mood, which is also conducive to tide over the discomfort brought by menopause.
