    GlossaryPremenopausal

    stage before menopause with irregular periods and hormonal changes

    Premenopausal refers to the stage in a woman's life before she reaches menopause, the point at which menstrual periods permanently stop. During the premenopausal phase, women may experience irregular menstrual cycles and symptoms such as hot flashes, mood swings, and changes in hair and skin due to fluctuating hormone levels. This stage can vary in length and typically occurs in women in their 40s, but can start earlier or later.
