Every woman experiences menopause differently. Some women may not experience any noticeable symptoms, while others may feel as if they are experiencing every listed symptom of menopause. Symptoms can last for a few months or for several years and are caused by changes in the female hormones estrogen and progesterone.
Recent studies show that 15% of females have bothersome hot flashes into their 80s. Changes in hormones are a result of aging, or are medically induced through medication or an operation.
