Question: How long does menopause last?
Answer:
Transitioning into menopause, or going through perimenopause, can last anywhere from several months to a decade. However, the average length of perimenopause for most women is four years. Once you have no longer had a period for an entire year, you are considered to have gone through menopause.
After you have gone through menopause, symptoms such as hot flashes and mood swings should subside. Once this occurs you then enter the postmenopausal phase.
