Menopause (also
called the "change of life" or climacteric) is a natural event in a
woman's life, which normally occurs between the ages of 40 and 55. On
average, menopause begins at about age 51. During menopause, ovulation
(egg production) ceases, eliminating the possibility of pregnancy, and
menstruation becomes less frequent and eventually stops.
