[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is common knowledge - that's why they call it MENopause. It's when we have to hit pause with the MEN. It's biological.[/quote] "Menses" derives from the Latin word mensis (plural menses), meaning "month" or "months". It originates from a Proto-Indo-European root, me(n)ses-, meaning both "moon" and "month," reflecting the ancient practice of using the 29-day lunar cycle to measure time and, by association, the menstrual cycle. Menopause originates from the French term ménopause, coined in 1821 by physician Charles-Pierre-Louis de Gardanne. It is derived from the Greek roots men ("month" or "monthly") and pausis ("cessation" or "pause"), literally meaning the “cessation of the monthly cycle”. [/quote]
