Is a long and irregular menstrual period the menopause?

Patient's question:

Since last year, there has been a year of menstrual irregularity. In November last year, a hysteroscopy and cervical cytology screening were performed, both of which were normal.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, your condition falls under the category of perimenopausal syndrome, also known as menopause. Generally, it can manifest as irregular menstruation, hot flashes, irritability, and other symptoms. It is recommended that if there is no significant discomfort, you can wait and see. If there is discomfort, you can go to the hospital for regulation and safely navigate through the perimenopausal period under the guidance of a doctor.
