Skin cancer is a disease that occurs when skin cells begin to grow abnormally and out of control, forming a mass or tumor. In a normal or healthy situation, cells after their normal period of life end up dying, multiplying only when necessary so that there is a balance. When a cell is damaged, namely its DNA, it no longer has the ability to regulate when it should multiply, ending up replicating without any control. This exaggerated number of damaged cells en bloc is what we call cancer.
Menopause is a normal natural biological process in all women, and it is the end of their reproductive phase, recognized through the natural interruption of menstruation. After 12 consecutive months without any menstruation, menopause can be confirmed.
