    Do you have a menopause policy in place?

    Menopause is a natural part of the female life cycle. It begins when oestrogen levels decline and periods end. Menopause symptoms typically affect women aged between their late 30s to late 50s and can seriously affect their life. In Ireland, the average age a woman reaches menopause is 51. The length of menopause also varies. Symptoms usually last about four years, but around one in 10 women experience them for up to 12 years.
