Hormones and Menopause Signs

by Menopause Signs

When it comes to hormones and menopause signs, it’s the fact that our estrogen levels are decreasing that is causing us so much strife. Did you know that in every woman’s lifetime she’ll have more than 350 menstrual cycles. Eeeegads, think of all the materials you’ve needed (pads and tampons), you could have gone on a nice vacation without them all, eh? *grin*

Okay, okay, I’m still right there with you experiencing those hot flashes and hoping to come out of this as quickly as possible. So, what’s with all those cycles anyway? Well, a woman is born with a certain number of eggs that work towards wanting to get fertilized. Of course only a few of those ever do, but your body goes through the process each month. Imagine this- you’re born with somewhere around 500,000 eggs! Of course your body absorbs many of those before you even hit puberty.

Now that you’re getting older, your eggs aren’t as abundant, and their supply is depleting. What happens is your body doesn’t respond the same way. Eventually your body slows the process of making estrogen and progesterone– welcome to menopause. The early fluctuation is the start of menopause (perimenopause or premenopause)….and your body will react to this on and off for the next few years, as your body has less of a need.
