Perimenopausal Menstrual Problem
As the women approach the age of 40 few variations in the menstrual pattern are expected. The ovarian reserve is determined for every women at her birth. Half of this reserve is lost even before the age of menarche when the ovulation begins. Along with the ovulating follicles, a few other follicles are lost in every menstrual period. When she reaches beyond 40-45 years the follicles reserve and quality of follicles also drop. As a result, ovulation becomes irregular and so do the periods.
