The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists has recently launched a website for women who are approaching or going through menopause. The website and the companion magazine, Pause, covers a lot of territory – from hot flashes to urinary incontinence. The section on Menopause will likely be most helpful to women in the peri-menopause stage, who are still trying to figure out what’s happening to them.
However, there are sections on the site about Tests & Procedures, Conditions or Health Problems, Cancer, and Your Annual Check-Up (about health screening tests women over 45 should have annually) that are all informative and important to know about.

Menopause is definitely a physical and mental change in your life. As women it is important for us to recognize the signs, and visit our family practitioner to know what further steps we have to take. Realize though like most aspects of our life, the symptoms will end and you can carry on with your life as normal.
Excellent post, thanks!
