Menopause, conceptual artwork
Menopause, conceptual artwork. Menopause is the cessation of menstruation. It usually occurs between the ages of 45 and 55. It is caused when the ovaries (centre left and right) stop producing the female sex hormone oestrogen. Symptoms can include hot flushes (red), mood swings and vaginal dryness. Hormone replacement therapy (HRT), may be used to decrease the severity of some symptoms and reduce the risk of osteoporosis (brittle bone disease)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful conceptual artwork titled "Menopause" captures the essence of this natural and significant phase in a woman's life. The print showcases the intricate process that occurs when menstruation ceases, typically between the ages of 45 and 55. At the center left and right, we see the ovaries, which play a crucial role in producing estrogen, the female sex hormone. The artist skillfully portrays various effects and symptoms associated with menopause through vivid imagery. The fiery red hues represent hot flushes, one of the most common experiences during this transition. Mood swings and vaginal dryness are also depicted as part of this transformative journey. While menopause brings about physical changes, it is important to note that medical interventions such as Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) can alleviate some symptoms while reducing the risk of osteoporosis or brittle bone disease. Through this thought-provoking illustration, viewers gain insight into both physiological processes and emotional aspects related to menopause. It serves as a reminder that women undergo unique transformations throughout their lives, each deserving recognition and understanding. Science Photo Library presents us with an exceptional piece of artwork that not only educates but also sparks conversations surrounding women's health care.
