51.4 years of age is the average age for menopause. The
perimenopausal phase can be a period lasting as long as 10 years before
the last menstrual period. Hormonal swings can wreak havoc with a
woman's emotions. The physicians at Mountain View follow the
recommendations of the North American Menopause Society (NAMS)
(www.menopause.org) and include a certified menopause practitioner and
the latest in hormonal therapy, including the facts about bio-identical
hormone therapy.
Alternative approaches to menopause are familiar to the physicians and
physician's assistants at Mountain View. These include alternatives for
patients who are unable to take hormones such as breast cancer patients
or other female cancer patients.
No woman needs to suffer the ravages of menopause alone! |
