Navigating Menopause: Your Guide to Relief and Renewal
Welcome to Luniran’s comprehensive resource for menopause support. Menopause, typically occurring between ages 45-55, marks the end of menstrual cycles after 12 months without a period, driven by declining estrogen and progesterone. It’s a natural transition, but symptoms like hot flashes and mood swings can feel overwhelming. At Luniran, we blend science-based menopause care with holistic strategies to help you find menopause relief and thrive. Whether you’re seeking menopause weight gain solutions or emotional balance, you’re not alone—let’s chart your path forward.
What Is Menopause? Decoding the Change
Menopause is defined by the North American Menopause Society (NAMS) as the point when ovarian function ceases, usually around age 51. This hormonal shift triggers a range of physical and emotional changes, lasting 7-14 years on average. Understanding menopause symptoms is key to managing them effectively.
