What is menopause?

I like to know what is menopause? Is this something that I have to worry about at young age affecting my sex drive and mood swing? Is this also going to prevent me from having baby?

In general, menopause is a result of hormonal change where a woman stops ovulating. This usually occurs for women between the ages of 40s and 50s, but this can also occur to women in the early thirties or late sixties. There are many symptoms associated with menopause and some of which include low sex drive, mood swing, hot flashes, night sweats, and insomnia. When a woman stop ovulating during menopause means she is no longer having periods and she can never get pregnant or bear child. If you are still young in your 20s, this is not something that you should worry about at the moment.

You may be confused with so many types of birth control pill because you may be looking at so many different brands. In general, estrogen and progestin pill are classified into monophasic, biphasic, or triphasic. Monophasic pill contain the same amount of estrogen and progestin in each active pill so it deliver constant dosages throughout the cycle. Biphasic pill contain different amount of estrogen and progestin in each active pill and it works by delivering fluctuates dosages during the cycle. Triphasic pill contain either the same or different amount of estrogen and different amount of progestin in each active pill. You need a prescription to use birth control pill so the first step is to consult with a gynecologist.
