The end of ovulation and menstruation in women around the age of 45.

"The menstrual cycle is what happens in a girl's or woman's body after the first period. It lasts between 21 and 35 days and is made up of 4 phases, including menstruation. It begins on the first day of the period and ends the day before the next period. As soon as one cycle ends, another begins, until menopause (permanent end to menstruation)".

Between the ages of around 9 and 45, women have blood flowing from their vagina for a few days every month, except during pregnancy. This phenomenon is known as menstruation. It is one of the phases of the menstrual cycle.
