A New Chapter, Not an Ending
Menopause
Of all the transformations we experience in life, menopause can be one of the most challenging, physically, emotionally and even socially. It's still surrounded by stigma, silence and a lack of open conversation.
At Menopause Restore, we believe that the first step in facing any life change is learning to talk about it openly, honestly and without shame.
Thankfully, times are changing. Women around the world are beginning to share their journeys, speaking up about their symptoms, and breaking the silence.
Words like "crazy," "hysterical" or "washed up" have no place in describing a woman going through a natural, biological process.
The end of our reproductive years is not the end of our vitality. There is so much life, growth, pleasure and purpose after menopause.
Every Journey Is Unique
More Than Just Hot Flushes
While every woman’s experience is different, there are more than 30 known symptoms of menopause, this transition can impact your sleep, mood, energy, skin and more.
For some women, symptoms are subtle. For others, they bring daily disruption. Some women experience intense hot flushes and night sweats. Others struggle with brain fog, low libido or a sudden dip in confidence.
All of it is real. All of it is valid.
That’s why it’s so important to support your body and mind holistically, through nourishing habits, gentle movement, emotional care and hormone-free products designed to ease discomfort and restore balance.
Menopause FAQs
Menopause is the natural phase of life that marks the end of your menstrual cycles. It’s officially diagnosed after you’ve gone 12 consecutive months without a period. It typically occurs between the ages of 45 and 55, although the transition can begin earlier.
The full transition from reproductive to non-reproductive years is called the climacteric and it includes three key stages: perimenopause, menopause and postmenopause.
Perimenopause is the first phase, when estrogen and progesterone levels begin to fluctuate. This is when symptoms often begin, such as irregular periods, mood shifts and sleep disruption.
Menopause marks the official end of fertility and is confirmed after 12 consecutive months without a period. It’s not a single moment, but rather a milestone in an ongoing process.

Symptoms can begin during perimenopause and continue into postmenopause. For some women, they last a few months, for others, they may persist for several years. The average duration is around 4–5 years, but everyone’s journey is different.
