Every woman experiences this process differently. Some women have severe symptoms some have very light ones. Some experience these symptoms till their 80's and more and some do not feel any symptoms after just a couple of years. If you have no more hot flashes you can safely deduct that its over, but some symptoms will never disappear like dryness of the vagina, dryness of skin,. eyes. The process of aging is continuing as long as you live and if you are ready mentally to accept this process of birth and death, things will be much easier for you.
