Menopause is when the ovaries stop working, after which ovulation, periods and the production of the hormones oestrogen, progesterone and testosterone ceases, and women can no longer become spontaneously pregnant.
Human women are one of the few species that go through menopause; the only others we know of being female short-toothed whales (belugas, short-finned pilots, orcas and narwhals). Almost all other animals retain the ability to reproduce throughout their lifespan.
