About Natural Menopause Natural Menopause Natural menopause is a process. Your body produces certain hormones, including estrogen and progesterone. In the years before you reach menopause, your body begins making less of these hormones, and your periods may become irregular. This time is called perimenopause. Even though your periods are irregular, you can still get pregnant during this time. Eventually, your periods stop completely. When you have not had a period for 12 months in a row, you have reached menopause. Menopause is a change all women eventually experience. Usually, it happens between the ages of 40 and 55. Some women go through menopause without having many symptoms. Other women may have symptoms of menopause that are very hard to live with. You might find it helpful to talk with friends or family members about what you are experiencing. Also, if you would like to learn more about menopause, your healthcare provider may be able to give you educational materials, or you can visit some of the Web sites listed in the Resources section of this Web site. Nearly three out of four women have hot flashes and night sweats during menopause. If you are suffering from moderate-to-severe hot flashes and night sweats, ask your healthcare professional if ENJUVIA might be right for you. IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION Important Information: ENJUVIA is a medicine that contains estrogen hormones. It is prescribed for relief of moderate-to-severe symptoms (hot flashes and night sweats) associated with menopause.

If you experience persistent or recurring vaginal bleeding while taking estrogens let your doctor know right away, as this could be a warning sign for cancer. Your doctor should check for the cause of any unusual vaginal bleeding after menopause. Estrogens (alone or in combination with progestins) should not be used to prevent heart disease, heart attacks, strokes or dementia.
