Patient's question:
Female, 55 years old, I used to be a very calm person, but recently I can't control my temper and always argue with my family. I seem to dislike everything. What's going on with me? Please ask: At what age do women experience menopause and what are the symptoms?Doctor's answer:
Generally, menopause mainly begins between the ages of 40 and 50. According to incomplete data compilation, the average age of menopause for Chinese women is around 47.5 years, where menstrual disorders may reappear. For women, menopause refers to the transitional period during which ovarian function gradually declines from a state of full vitality to complete disappearance, including the time before and after menopause. Menopausal symptoms may include repeated occurrences of hot flashes, dizziness, palpitations, seeing black spots, or limbs feeling cold, which require special attention and regulation.
