Patient's question:
I used to have a very good temper, but recently I've been unable to control my temper and haven't been sleeping well. What is this situation? Please ask: How can menopausal syndrome be judged?Doctor's answer:
Women around the age of 45-55 during the natural menopause and men around 50-60 years old often experience a recurrence of many symptoms and signs, known as the menopausal syndrome. Most of the symptoms that reappear during menopause are related to the autonomic nervous system. The cause is the endocrine imbalance, with the gradual decline of ovarian gonadal function and an increase in hormone secretion. At the same time, the balance and coordination among the hypothalamus, pituitary, and ovaries also undergo changes, leading to transient hyperactivity of the pituitary function, resulting in endocrine dysfunction of the entire system. This further causes autonomic nervous system disorders, ultimately leading to the menopausal syndrome.
