Menopause begins naturally when your ovaries start making less estrogen and progesterone,
Menopause symptoms and key signs of menopause generally begin during what is known as the peri-menopause or pre-menopause period, and generally reach their peak during the actual onset of menopause itself.
Menopause is a transitional period in a woman's life that officially occurs when a woman stops producing eggs and menstruation ceases for a period of time greater than one year.
For most women menopause does not officially begin until after the age of 50, however this varies from woman to woman based on a number of factors.
The average age at onset for most women is between the ages of 50 to 52. Many women however will begin experiencing the signs and symptoms of menopause several years prior to actual menopause.
The signs and symptoms of menopause, however, often appear long before the one-year anniversary of your final period. They include:
These changes are often the results of declining levels of progesterone and estrogen in a woman's body. Estrogen and progesterone are hormones that help keep the vagina and uterus healthy and help maintain regular menstrual cycle. Estrogen also helps maintain a woman's bone mass and helps maintain levels of good cholesterol in the body.

13. Menopause Myths Women don’t enjoy sex once they have entered menopause
Many symptoms of menopause affect a woman’s sex life – however a majority of these can be overcome
This simply isn't true! While it is true that many symptoms of menopause may affect a woman's sex life, a majority of these can be overcome.  Vaginal dryness for example, is easily resolved with the use of over the counter lubricants.  Many women enjoy sex after menopause, and some enjoy sex even more than they did before menopause because they no longer have to worry about unexpected pregnancies, and often have come to appreciate their bodies more fully after menopause!
It is true that a woman's sex drive tends to fall after menopause, however men's sex drive also declines with age.  The need for physical contact and intimacy however does not decline with age.  If you are struggling with a decreased libido, there are treatments available that can help increase your sex drive.  Be sure to consult with your physician regarding your specific symptoms.
This is definitely false. Many women have reported that their sex life improved dramatically after menopause.  In fact, most women are more capable of releasing their fears and insecurities after menopause, and more willing to be free and more intimate with their partner after the change. 13
