How This Menopause Symptom Works
Enter your age and rate common menopause symptoms from 0-3 based on frequency and severity. The checker combines age factors with symptom patterns to estimate your likely transition stage. Perimenopause typically begins in the mid-40s and lasts several years before menopause.
When Should You Use This Tool
Use this checker when you notice changes in your menstrual cycle, experience unexplained hot flashes, or have sleep disruptions that coincide with other hormonal symptoms. Monthly tracking helps identify the transition pattern and provides useful information for medical appointments.
Is This Tool Accurate and Safe
This checker identifies symptom patterns associated with perimenopause but cannot confirm menopause status. Official menopause is defined as 12 months without menstruation. Hormone testing can provide additional clarity. All calculations happen locally with no data stored.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the average age for menopause in women?
The average age for natural menopause is 51, but perimenopause symptoms can begin 4-8 years earlier. Most women experience menopause between ages 45 and 55. Early menopause before 45 should be evaluated by a doctor.
How long does perimenopause last?
Perimenopause typically lasts 4-8 years before final menopause. Symptoms may fluctuate during this time, with some months being more intense than others.
What are the first signs of perimenopause?
Early signs often include irregular periods, changes in menstrual flow, hot flashes, sleep disturbances, and mood fluctuations. Many women notice period changes before experiencing hot flashes.
Can I still get pregnant during perimenopause?
Yes. Pregnancy is possible until you reach menopause (12 months without a period). Irregular periods do not mean you cannot conceive. Contraception remains necessary if pregnancy is not desired.
