Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The symptoms described (absence of period for over 6 months, hot flashes, and headaches) are common indicators of menopause, which is the cessation of menstruation and the end of the reproductive period in a woman's life. Option A, post menstrual syndrome, is not a recognized medical condition. Option B, menstruation cessation, is too general and does not refer specifically to menopause. Option C, menarche, refers to a girl's first menstrual cycle, which occurs around the age of 12, and is not relevant to a woman in her fifties.
