Female menopause mostly occurs around 50 years old, before and after menstruation is cut off. As early as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, it was observed in Huangdi Neijing that women over 50 years old stopped menstruation and lost their reproductive ability because of the gradual decline of kidney qi and the loss of meridians. During this period, the yin and yang of the human body are often out of balance, resulting in a series of symptoms of visceral dysfunction.

Because of the decrease of estrogen in female menopause, various organs have changed, and many parts of the body are uncomfortable. Their symptoms are varied, sometimes hidden, sometimes light and sometimes heavy, but usually nothing can be found.

Emotional instability is the most prominent symptom of menopause. Or irritable, or sentimental, or melancholy and anxious, or withdrawn and quiet, or nagging. Hot flashes are also common. No matter day or night, conscious heat flows to the head, back of the neck or limbs. Hot flashes are followed by sweating. Insomnia, dreaminess, dizziness, brain swelling and tinnitus, and fatigue are also common symptoms. Some menopausal women will feel chest tightness, some will feel skin ants, and some will feel joint and muscle pain ... There are so many subjective feelings and no abnormalities are found in the examination, so modern medicine calls it female menopause syndrome.

For the vast majority of menopausal women, the symptoms are relatively mild and the duration is relatively short, but a few people have obvious symptoms and the duration is relatively long.

In order to alleviate all kinds of discomfort and eliminate the troubles of menopause, it is very important to pay attention to mental health, especially for intellectual women, because the higher the educational level, the heavier the psychological feelings. If women want to go through menopause smoothly, they should first make psychological adjustment, face up to the reality, realize that menopause is a natural thing and abide by the laws of nature. There is nothing wrong with having such and such discomfort, but a natural reaction to physiological changes. As short as half a year, as long as two years, you can regain your "second youth" when you return to normal.

During this period, life should be regular, work and rest should be moderate, and exercise should be combined. To ensure adequate sleep time and proper entertainment and sports activities. Diet, eat less spicy food, such as onions, garlic, peppers, wine and so on. Eat less animal fat and sugar, eat more nutritious food, such as lily, lotus root, pear, celery and other vegetables, or choose fruits and bean products.

As long as menopausal women reduce their mental burden, pay attention to the combination of work and rest, and cooperate with diet to make their lives colorful and happy, all kinds of uncomfortable feelings can be alleviated and gradually disappear, and this eventful autumn can be successfully passed.

Men's Menopause comes later than women's, which is usually manifested as poor physical strength, lack of energy, memory loss, slow thinking, lack of interest in many things and inactivity. There will also be insomnia, dreaminess, irritability, low libido and even impotence. These symptoms are often mistaken for neurasthenia.

In fact, this is a physiological and psychological change caused by endocrine disorders in men after half a century. As long as we eliminate our worries, pay attention to our daily life, engage in more recreational and sports activities that we are interested in in in our spare time, or exchange entertainment with friends and relatives to enrich our lives, the symptoms will be alleviated and gradually disappear, and we can spend the "eventful autumn" of menopause more easily and smoothly than women.
