Causes of the condition
Menopause is a natural biological process that occurs in women typically in their late 40s to early 50s, marked by the cessation of menstruation and a decline in reproductive hormones, particularly estrogen and progesterone. The primary cause of menopause is the aging of the ovaries, leading to a decrease in ovarian follicles and hormonal changes.
