The perimenopause stage can begin an earlier at the mid to late 40s. During this period, the ovaries start to gradually produce less estrogen. During this transition, women can still be on a regular menstrual cycle and can become pregnant but they may start experiencing menopausal symptoms.

There are symptoms associated with menopause that can be experienced during perimenopause. Although women may experience different symptoms, the common cause is usually decreasing estrogen levels.
