Midlife Health and Menopause Center
The Center for Midlife Health and Menopause helps women manage and optimize their health during the menopausal transition. Certified Menopause Practitioners by the North American Menopause Association, our clinicians not only provide treatment and support for symptoms related to menopause, but also provide education about the effects of menopause on your overall health. .
The menopausal life stage begins in the peri-menopausal period. Menopause usually begins in your 40s, but it can change. The complete transition to menopause, defined as 12 months after the last menstrual period, occurs over 10 years. The average age of menopause is 52 years.
We also offer treatments for induced menopause, when the ovaries stop supplying estrogen with radiation therapy, certain medications, or surgical removal.
