Perimenopause or as some describe it "menopause transition" will be the stage in a woman's life when her body starts to gradually reduce the amount of estrogen it produces. It can start for some women in their 30s but for the majority of females it starts within their late 40s or early 50s. Perimenopause is typical and can last from two to eight years normally and ends when menopause begins. It's the decreased estrogen production that leads to the physical and emotional changes women experience. It appears pretty simple but can bring by using it a whole host of issues.
