An Overview Of Menopause Symptoms
Women who reach menopausal age may be feeling overwhelmed by some of the menopause symptoms. These are women who have always felt confident and healthy. Suddenly they are in the midst of a meeting or activity and feel overly warm. The heat is followed almost immediately by profuse sweating and sometimes by a racing heart. The symptoms are commonly called a hot flash. It is the most common symptom of menopause, but not the only one. Menopause is medically defined as the day after the end of the last period. A full year must elapse without a period before a woman is said to have reached menopause.
