Menopause
has been defined the last menstruation in a woman.
This
phenomenon happens in the aged between 48-52 Years.
The
typical symptom equipment, of this period of feminine life, has developed
in the age called perinomenopausale; that means the immediate period before and

a gland called hypophysis.
Hypophysis stimulates ovary through two hormones witch are gonadotropine:
one of these is FSH (stimulating follicle) and the other one is LH (stimulating

LH.
