Most women enter menopause between the ages 45–55, and many experience uncomfortable symptoms such as excessive sweating, heart palpitations, numb skin, scabies, dizziness, headaches, and inability to sleep. They can also feel easily angered or anxious, become disinterested in sexual activity, and usually have abnormal periods before their periods stop altogether.

These symptoms arise due to decreased ovary function that leads to decreased levels of the hormones estrogen and progesterone in the body.
