Understanding Menopause: Symptoms and Expert Advice by Dr. Hitesh Patel
Introduction
Menopause is a significant milestone in a woman’s life, marking the natural end of her reproductive years. While this phase is normal, the symptoms associated with it can sometimes be challenging to manage. At Harsh Hospital, Himatnagar, we’re committed to helping women navigate this transition with expert guidance and care. In this blog, Dr. Hitesh Patel, a highly experienced gynecologist, sheds light on the symptoms of menopause and how to manage them effectively.
What Is Menopause?
Menopause is defined as the cessation of menstrual periods for 12 consecutive months. It usually occurs between the ages of 45 and 55, but symptoms can begin years before in the perimenopausal stage.
Common Symptoms of Menopause
Irregular Periods
- One of the first signs of menopause is changes in the menstrual cycle. Periods may become less frequent, lighter, or heavier before stopping entirely.
Hot Flashes and Night Sweats
- Sudden feelings of intense heat, often accompanied by sweating and flushing, are common during menopause. These can also disrupt sleep.
Mood Swings and Anxiety
- Hormonal fluctuations can lead to emotional changes, including irritability, anxiety, and mild depression.
Sleep Problems
- Insomnia or difficulty staying asleep often accompanies menopause, particularly due to night sweats.
Vaginal Dryness
- Lower estrogen levels can cause dryness and discomfort, especially during intimacy.
Weight Gain
- A slower metabolism during menopause may lead to weight changes.
Bone Loss
- Decreased estrogen levels increase the risk of osteoporosis, making bones more fragile.
