Patient's question:
I heard from a friend that women may experience menopause after the age of 42. I'm a bit worried that menopause might have an adverse effect on my body and skin condition, so I don't want to go through it too early. Could you please advise on what to eat to help delay menopause?Doctor's answer:
The average age of menopause is 49 years old. Some women may experience it a few years earlier or later, but menopause at the age of 42 is considered abnormal and is a sign of early ovarian failure. It is unlikely to experience menopause at the age of 42. You can in your daily diet, as they contain natural estrogen, which can help prevent early menopause. Engaging in regular physical activity and maintaining a positive mindset is also beneficial. Dairy products are the richest source of calcium and are highly absorbable and utilizable.
