Reasons for the definition of menopause: 1994 The World Health Organization (WHO) also put forward a new definition of perimenopausal period at the conference on "Progress of Climacteric Research in the 1990s" to replace the word "menopause". Perimenopausal period can be as short as 2 ~ 3 years or as long as 8 ~ 12 years. When did menopause begin? It is vague in the memory of most women. Most women can only tell when menopause happened, but they often can't remember when they began to feel unwell and when their symptoms disappeared. However, not having menopause does not mean not having entered menopause.
In recent years, the content of male menopause has been added.
One? Female menopause: also known as perimenopausal syndrome, also known as menopausal syndrome (MPS), refers to a series of autonomic nervous system dysfunction and neuropsychological symptoms caused by the fluctuation or decrease of sex hormones before and after menopause.
Female menopausal symptoms: 1, menstrual disorder:
What are the symptoms of female menopause? It is the most common and prominent performance of menopausal women. Menstruation is often delayed, even once every few months, and the amount of menstruation gradually decreases. When estrogen is less and less, it can no longer cause endometrial changes and menstruation stops. This is called menopause.
2, backache:
Low back pain is an early symptom of osteoporosis in menopausal women, and some women suffer from low back and limb pain, scapulohumeral periarthritis and cervical spondylosis.
3. Neurological and mental diseases:
Some women's blood pressure fluctuates obviously, which may lead to emotional instability, excitability, personality change and memory loss.
Symptom 4. Hot flashes: What are the symptoms of female menopause? This is one of the main features of menopause. Due to the decrease of estrogen level, the blood calcium level of some women also decreases, and there will be bouts of fever, blushing and sweating, accompanied by dizziness and palpitation, lasting for one or two minutes or 12 minutes to 15 minutes.
Precautions for female menopause: 1. Wear several layers of clothes, preferably cotton. If there is hot flashes, undress outside. In addition, at the beginning of hot flashes, drink a glass of cold water or iced juice.
2. Wear cotton pajamas to keep the bedroom cool. Put more sheets on the bed. Wet the sheets in hot flashes and you can take them off.
Pay attention to diet, don't drink, don't eat spicy food.
4. Keep exercising. Some women find that keeping exercising can reduce the influence of hot flashes and help them sleep.
5. Eat more tofu. Beans contain a substance that belongs to estrogen, which may help relieve symptoms such as hot flashes. You can also drink cold soybean milk at the beginning of hot flashes.
6. Be patient. The symptom of menopause is "rabbit tail-it can't grow". It will gradually disappear in 3-5 years at most.
7. Deal with vaginal dryness. Decreased libido seems to be related to vaginal dryness. Because vaginal dryness can cause sexual pain. There are vaginal lubricating creams on the market, some containing estrogen and some water-soluble ones without estrogen, which can lubricate the vagina and solve the problem of vaginal dryness during sexual intercourse.
From a health point of view, some symptoms of menopause are not a big problem. More important is the long-term health effects after menopause. Today, women have at least 30 years after menopause. These 30 years can be very healthy and happy. However, due to the obvious decrease of estrogen level in the body, the risk of two health-threatening diseases has increased significantly. One of them is heart disease. Before menopause, few women died of heart disease. After menopause, the number of women who died of heart disease began to increase. By the age of 75, the probability of heart disease for men and women is basically the same.
At the age of 65, almost the same number of women died of heart disease and cancer. By the age of 75, heart disease has become the main killer of women. Another major health threat after menopause is osteoporosis. Osteoporosis can lead to fractures and seriously affect the quality of life of women in their later years. Women's bone mineral density is not as high as that of men from birth, and the rate of bone loss after menopause is also faster than that of men. This is why many women will get osteoporosis after the age of 65. Therefore, it is important for women to recognize these risks and start prevention before menopause. Good hygiene habits are the best way to prevent heart disease and osteoporosis.
