Menopause is often associated with the end of menstrual cycles, but its impact goes far beyond that. This natural transition affects almost every system in the body, leading to a wide range of symptoms that many women don’t immediately connect to hormonal changes. From anxiety and brain fog to brittle nails and frozen shoulders, menopause brings physical, emotional, and metabolic shifts that can feel overwhelming.
Menopause is typically associated with women in their late 40s or early 50s, but for some, it can arrive much earlier. Early menopause—defined as menopause occurring before the age of 45—can be surprising, distressing, and challenging for those still planning their families or managing their reproductive health.
The fallopian tubes are essential for conception, serving as the meeting place for sperm and egg. However, if these tubes are blocked or damaged, natural pregnancy becomes difficult. The good news? Not all blockages are permanent, and in many cases, they can be treated or bypassed with assisted reproductive techniques.
For many women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS), birth control pills are often the first line of treatment. They help regulate menstrual cycles, reduce acne, control excessive hair growth, and manage heavy or irregular periods.
