Menopause is the period in most women's lives when menstrual periods stop permanently.
Menopause is characterized by the loss of responsiveness by the ovaries to follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH).
It is characterized with elevated follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) levels.Luteinizing hormone (LH) also rise after menopause because the ovaries no longer function.
