Patient's question:
I am 47 years old, female, and have been experiencing severe menopausal symptoms recently. At night, I often suffer from neurasthenia and can't sleep, feeling completely exhausted by the third day. Could you please tell me what symptoms are associated with menopausal syndrome?Doctor's answer:
You can wait for another three days and see. If there is still no menstruation after stopping medication for less than 10 days, it indicates that the estrogen level is a bit low. You can have an ultrasound to check the condition of the uterus carefully. If the endometrium is not thick, no treatment is needed, just wait and see. If the endometrium is thick, you can use another course of progesterone to see if it can cause the endometrium to shed and bring on a period.Patients should develop a regular lifestyle with a good sleep schedule, persist in treatment, and maintain a light diet with aerobic exercise to boost their immunity and reduce the risk of illness.
