Seven symptoms of endocrine disorders in women during menopause

When women reach menopause, their bodies will undergo some changes, which are mainly caused by endocrine disorders. So what specific symptoms will appear when women have endocrine disorders during menopause?

1. Skin deterioration

Many women have had this experience: many yellow spots and pigmentation suddenly appear on their beautiful face, and no matter how much cosmetics they apply, it doesn’t help. In fact, this is not just a skin problem. These pigmentation spots are also caused by adverse stimulation from external factors when the endocrine system is unstable.

2. Short temper

Women in menopause often become irritable, have mood swings, sweat, and have a bad temper, etc. This may be caused by a decline in women's endocrine function.

3. Breasts

The main cause of breast pain and breast hyperplasia is endocrine disorders. The more important function of the breast is to promote its growth and development through the secretion of estrogen. Therefore, once the endocrine system is unbalanced or disordered, it is easy to cause breast hyperplasia and breast cancer.

4. Body hair

Regardless of gender, the endocrine system in the body produces and releases both male and female hormones. The difference is that boys have more male hormones and girls have less male hormones, which results in their respective characteristics. However, when the endocrine system in the body is out of balance and women secrete too much male hormone, they may have symptoms of hirsutism.

5. Gynecological diseases

Gynecological endocrine diseases are very common. Endometriosis, irregular menstruation, dysmenorrhea, and menstrual disorders are all gynecological endocrine diseases. Some breast diseases are also related to endocrine disorders. Some facial pigmentation is also caused by gynecological diseases.

6. Gray hair and premature aging

Premature graying of hair may also be an endocrine problem. In addition, endocrine disorders, especially the decrease in sex hormone secretion, is an important cause of human aging.

7. Obesity

"Even drinking cold water can make you gain weight," many people often express this sentiment. According to an endocrinologist, this may be related to the individual's endocrine disorder. Eating habits such as high-calorie, high-fat foods and not paying attention to dietary balance can also have an impact on the endocrine system.
