Patient's question:
I used to have a very good temper, but recently I've been unable to control my temper, and my sleep has also been poor. What is the situation like for me? Please ask: What foods should menopausal women avoid?Doctor's answer:
After women enter menopause, due to the continuous increase in gonadotropin secretion and dysfunction of the vegetative nervous system, they may exhibit a series of symptoms ranging from mild to severe, such as menstrual irregularities, sudden hot flashes, flushing, sweating, neurasthenia, dizziness, pain, irritability, anger, or depression and suspicion. Severe cases can cause significant distress to the individual, and both families and society feel the changes in the patient's emotions and behavior, affecting interpersonal relationships and normal life. These symptoms are collectively known as menopausal syndrome.Menopause marks the beginning of a more pronounced physical and psychological aging process, being a period of relatively intense physical and psychological changes in a person's life. Therefore, in addition to necessary hormone therapy and psychological treatment, attention should also be paid to daily nutrition and diet. Dietary treatment should be based on nourishing the heart and spleen, tonifying the kidneys, and moisturizing dryness.
