What are the side effects of artificial menopause?

Patient's question:

I am already 42 years old, but I haven't gone through menopause yet. The doctor recommended that I could undergo artificial menopause. Could you please tell me what the side effects of artificial menopause are?

Doctor's answer:

It is harmful to the body to some extent, as it is artificial menopause and not intentional. Therefore, it may lead to menopause. During this period, you should maintain local hygiene and dietary habits, keep a light diet, and maintain a normal lifestyle. It is recommended to review at the hospital. For premenopausal women undergoing hysterectomy, it is advisable to preserve one or both ovaries to ensure that their menopausal process is similar to natural menopause, without the gradual decline of the menstrual cycle. For postmenopausal women undergoing hysterectomy, both ovaries should be removed simultaneously to avoid the need for further surgery due to ovarian disease.
