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 either, and she lacks energy. After examination, it was said that she is experiencing menopause. Please ask: is it better to have menopause early or late?Doctor's answer:
Entering menopause at the age of 48 is relatively early. It is recommended to have a blood test for the six major sex hormone levels at the hospital and undergo a color Doppler ultrasound examination. After diagnosis, symptomatic treatment should be administered. Pay attention to maintaining a regular lifestyle, avoid overtime work, keep a good mood, and never let stress become excessive. Engage in appropriate physical exercise. Identify the specific cause and treat the primary condition accordingly. Then, appropriately supplement with some traditional Chinese medicine for regulating menstruation.
