Patient's question:
I am 45 years old, female, and recently it might be menopause. During my afternoon nap, I always experience the symptoms of neurasthenia and hot flashes again. Could you please advise what to eat to alleviate insomnia during menopause?Doctor's answer:
Menopausal insomnia can be treated with some digestive estrogen drugs under the guidance of a doctor. Additionally, some Chinese herbal medicines that help calm the mind, relieve liver qi stagnation, and alleviate depression can be taken to regulate the condition. However, it is recommended to consult a doctor at the hospital for a tailored solution based on your mother's specific symptoms. Patients should develop good daily habits, maintain a regular sleep schedule, avoid smoking and alcohol, and engage in more physical exercise to boost their immunity and prevent the recurrence of the condition.
