What is Menopause & Perimenopause?

Menopause

Menopause is a natural stage in every woman’s life, marking the end of menstruation and fertility. It is officially diagnosed after 12 consecutive months without a period. For most Australian women, menopause occurs naturally between the ages of 45 and 55, with the average age being 51. This transition is caused by the loss of ovarian follicles, leading to decreased hormone production. These hormonal changes can impact long-term health, making early support and care essential for overall well-being.
While menopause marks the end of menstruation, perimenopause is the transitional phase that leads up to this stage.

Common Symptoms of Menopause

  • Hot flashes and night sweats.
  • Dryness and discomfort during intimacy.
  • Sleep disturbances.
  • Mood swings, anxiety, or depression.
  • Reduced bone density, increasing the risk of osteoporosis.
  • Changes in weight and metabolism.

At SRMG, our specialist GPs understand the challenges menopause can bring and offer tailored treatments to help you manage symptoms and improve your overall well-being. From hormone therapy to lifestyle support, our team is here to guide you every step of the way.

Perimenopause

Perimenopause, often referred to as the menopausal transition, is the stage leading up to menopause and usually begins in a woman’s 40s. This phase is characterised by fluctuating hormone levels and changes in menstrual cycles, which may become irregular in length or flow. Perimenopause starts when hormonal changes first occur and continues until one year after the final menstrual period.

Common Symptoms of Perimenopause:

  • Irregular periods, with changes in flow or cycle length.
  • Hot flashes and night sweats.
  • Mood swings, irritability, or increased premenstrual symptoms.
  • Fatigue and difficulty sleeping.
  • Sore breasts or changes in libido.

While perimenopause can last several years, you don’t have to navigate it alone. SRMG’s Albany-based GPs specialise in perimenopause treatment, offering care and personalised solutions to manage your symptoms and maintain your quality of life.
