Menopause
Menopause is a natural decline in reproductive hormones that usually occurs in women in their 40s or 50s. While this is a natural process, it can cause many symptoms that may be disruptive to your life. OB/GYNs at WMCHealth have a wide array of treatment options if you are experiencing troublesome symptoms.
