Physiological characteristics of menopausal women

Menopausal women will show some physiological characteristics as their ovarian function gradually declines and their estrogen levels drop. Experts point out that the physiological characteristics of menopausal women mainly include: hot flashes, sweating and palpitations, unstable blood pressure, fatigue, abnormal limb sensation, dizziness, tinnitus, etc.

In addition to the changes in the reproductive and endocrine nervous systems, the body's ability to adapt and regulate is also reduced in menopausal women, and their resistance is also reduced, which makes them more or less uncomfortable.

Psychological characteristics of menopausal women

The psychological characteristics of menopausal women mainly include: being upset, having mood swings, being easily agitated and angry, and being very unstable psychologically, etc. These are the characteristic symptoms of menopausal syndrome. In addition, sleep disorders are also very prominent, including insomnia, early awakening, frequent dreams, nightmares, and even tossing and turning all night, which aggravate psychological irritability.

Other psychological manifestations of menopausal women include inattention, memory loss, lack of energy and physical strength, inability to do housework, and weakened thinking ability. Menopausal women with more severe symptoms may also develop some obvious menopausal psychological illnesses, such as menopausal depression, menopausal paranoid disorder, etc.

Experts believe that these abnormal psychological states that occur in menopausal women are related to their original personality, physique, social status, emotional character and psychological balance, and are more closely related to menopause. Therefore, we should pay attention to these abnormal mental and psychological phenomena during menopause, eliminate psychological barriers, and make the symptoms gradually alleviate and disappear over time.
