Here's how to navigate fertility challenges during menopause

Menopause, driven by declining reproductive hormones, signifies the end of a woman's reproductive years. The average age in India is 46-47, but variation exists due to genetic, dietary, and lifestyle factors. Symptoms include hot flashes, mood swings, and vaginal dryness, impacting quality of life. Diagnosis is based on symptoms and 12 months without menstruation. Treatment options include hormone replacement therapy, lifestyle modifications, and non-hormonal medications.
