Morphology
premenopausal = menopausal (transparent) = pre + menopause + al
The meaning is directly formed by adding 'pre-' meaning 'before' to 'menopausal'.
Etymology
Premenopausal breaks into pre- 'before' and menopause, which comes from old words meaning 'month' and 'stop', like the English words month and pause. So, premenopausal means the time before a woman's monthly periods stop.
