Women of a certain age can experience an onset of changes that manifest as hot flashes, insomnia, irritability, and other symptoms. These changes mark the onset of menopause, and they can often throw you for a loop.

Dr. Williams has nearly 20 years of experience treating the Dodge City community. She can work with you to ease your symptoms and help you feel comfortable.
Perimenopause and menopause affect the level of hormones released by the body. This can lead to a hormonal imbalance which is the source of many of the signs of menopause. Not all women who undergo menopause experience all these symptoms, but if you are in your 40s and 50s and have these signs, there is a good chance you are undergoing menopause.
No one symptom or group of symptoms comes with menopause, but some of the most common include:
