Patient's question:
What to pay attention to during menopause syndromeLately, I've been feeling hot flashes and chest tightness, which is very uncomfortable. I also tend to get angry easily. How can I take care of myself?
Doctor's answer:
To smoothly navigate through menopause, it is essential to first understand menopause and recognize it as a normal physiological process. Additionally, it is important to arrange work and life properly, balancing work and rest. Life should be regular, and participating in cultural and sports activities can not only bring joy to the heart but also help concentrate attention and stabilize and alleviate menopausal discomfort. If these symptoms cannot be stabilized through lifestyle adjustments, one can use low-dose estrogen treatment under the guidance of a doctor or employ Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) for syndrome differentiation and treatment, which can yield good results. The recurrence of severe menopausal symptoms significantly impacts women's health, and patients should pay attention to maintaining external genital hygiene and preventing sexual infections throughout their lives. It is hoped that female patients can receive professional treatment.
