Hormones are chemical messengers that are produced naturally in the body and travel in your bloodstream to regulate lots of different processes.

Recognising Symptoms

Menopause is associated with both mental and physical symptoms which can vary from 
person to person and change as you progress through the stages of menopause.4

If you start noticing possible menopause symptoms, it’s important to speak with a healthcare professional to get confirmation about whether it is menopause you’re experiencing 
or a different health condition.

It’s important to remember that not everyone experiences the same set of symptoms; the severity of symptoms and the age at which they start can vary between women.3,6 Some women don’t notice any symptoms at all.4 For others, the regular occurrence of even just one or two symptoms can significantly impact everyday life.

The good news is that there is a variety of treatment and management options that may help alleviate menopause symptoms.
