Let's say, for example, you earn $53,000 and spend $80 a month for insurance â right at the national median household income and average premium for a single car. Your monthly gross income would be $4,416, one-tenth of that would be $441 and the monthly car payment you could afford would be $365.et's say, for example, you earn $53,000 and spend $80 a month for insurance â right at the national median household income and average premium for a single car.

As we describe below, the ovaries continue to produce hormones for many years after menopause and these hormones have many health benefits, as well as benefits for improved mood, prevention of vaginal dryness, preservation of skin tone and elasticity. Significantly, the ovaries produce hormones long after menopause. Estrogen continues to be produced in small amounts, about 25 percent of normal pre-menopausal levels. Testosterone is another hormone normally produced by the ovary and the ovary continues to make testosterone for about 30 years after menopause.
1 During and after menopause, the ovaries make much less of the hormone estrogen. 2  Estrogen loss may also occur with surgical removal of the ovaries or because of excessive dieting and exercise. 3  Estrogen helps protect bone. 4  Men produce less testosterone as they age.
