50-year-old woman with amenorrhea

In the minds of most women, when menopause begins is actually very vague, and they are not clear when they feel uncomfortable and when the symptoms disappear. This vague awareness is not conducive to the regulation of menopausal symptoms. Experts believe that women should have some understanding of menopause after the age of 40 and have the awareness of self-protection during menopause! It is too late for many people to start health care measures after menopause.

Generally speaking, the average age of menopause for Chinese women is around 50 years old, so it is normal for women to go through menopause around 50 years old! If you go through menopause five years before or after this age, that is, between 45 and 55 years old, it is also relatively normal and you don’t need to worry too much!

1. Stay away from tobacco and alcohol, and eat a healthy and light diet

Alcohol and nicotine in cigarettes cause irreversible damage to organs such as the liver. One of the reasons why women live longer than men is that she avoids smoking and drinking. During menopause, women should also pay attention to their diet. The taste should be light, the variety should be rich, and the combination of meat and vegetables should be reasonable! You can eat more soy products, honey and other foods containing estrogen, such as Qing, Cheng, and honey, which can effectively relieve menopausal menstrual disorders and improve symptoms such as hot flashes and night sweats. You can find them on the Internet.

2. Pay attention to osteoporosis

After menopause, women suffer particularly severe bone loss. Some patients may experience bone pain, joint pain, or local tenderness, but no redness, swelling, or heat. There may also be phenomena such as spinal deformity and shortening of height. Therefore, it is important to pay attention to such problems during menopause. On the one hand, you must insist on exercising, and on the other hand, you must protect your bones.

3. Be alert to cardiovascular diseases and have regular physical examinations

The incidence of cardiovascular diseases such as coronary heart disease and atherosclerosis increases in menopausal women, especially postmenopausal women. The symptoms are often affected by their mental state and are accompanied by pseudo-angina, which is difficult for ordinary people to distinguish. Therefore, menopausal women need to undergo regular check-ups and have a certain understanding of their physical condition.

4. Stay optimistic

Postmenopausal women are prone to mental and neurological symptoms, such as irritability, anger, and talkativeness. Some may also experience symptoms such as irritability, anxiety, restlessness, and depression. If these symptoms are allowed to develop, they will only aggravate menopausal symptoms and in severe cases may lead to depression. Therefore, it is recommended that menopausal women maintain an optimistic attitude, knowing that menopause is like "the rabbit's tail - it can't grow long", and not to have psychological pressure.
