ARUJ SAYS: The average age for menopause in the UK is 51. A natural biological process, our ovaries stop producing eggs, causing an absence of our period for 12 consecutive months. However, some women can experience period changes five to ten years earlier, alongside hair thinning and dry, itchy skin. To replenish dry areas, I recommend applying a nourishing moisturiser morning and evening. Q: What age does menopause start?
