Patient's question:
Female, 48 years old, don't know how, for the past half month, she has been experiencing chest tightness and shortness of breath. In the afternoon, she feels very irritable and hot. Her sleep is not very good, and she lacks energy. After checking, it was said that she has entered menopause. Please ask: Is a shortened menstrual cycle a sign of entering menopause?Doctor's answer:
The symptoms of menopause are primarily the gradual cessation of menstruation, which is reflected in emotions as suspicion, a tendency to feel guilty, getting angry over small matters, and being argumentative and suspicious, as well as symptoms of neurasthenia. Women going through menopause can digest estrogen by eating more legumes (such as soybeans, alfalfa, celery, etc.), as these plants are rich in plant isoflavones. Drinking soy milk is also a very good way to digest estrogen. It can be consumed more often in daily life. Wishing you good health!
