How do i know i am in menopause?

Perimenopause: Menopause is the absence of menses for 12 months. You are probably more interested in peri-menopause. Early peri-menopause is early or late menses by more than 3 days. Late peri-menopause is an absence of menses by more than 3 months but not 12 months. Many women have more symptoms in peri-menopause than menopause.

Check Your FSH Level: If you aren't pregnant, haven't experienced severe trauma or illness recently, haven't had your period in several months, and have an fsh > 25 (blood test), then you are probably in menopause.
