Patient's question:
I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. How can I treat menopausal syndrome?Doctor's answer:
Hello! Menopause refers to the period when women transition from their reproductive years to old age, marking a gradual decline in ovarian function. It typically begins at the age of 40 and lasts for 10-20 years, with menopause being a significant milestone. During this time, due to an increase in the secretion of sex hormones, a symptom complex based on autonomic nervous system dysfunction reappears, known as menopausal syndrome. This condition has a higher incidence rate and more severe symptoms in cases of malnutrition, unstable mental and emotional states, as well as in individuals who experience a rapid decline in estrogen levels due to surgery or radiation therapy that impairs ovarian function.
