Patient's question:
I am already 45 years old this year. In the first half of the year, I had already gone through menopause. It has been more than half a year since my last menstrual period, but this month I suddenly had my period again. I feel very strange about it and want to ask what it means to have a menstrual period again after menopause? Is this situation normal? Do I need to be treated for it?Doctor's answer:
In the two or three years before and after menopause, irregular menstrual cycles may occur, which could mean having a period every few months. This is not considered abnormal and is a common symptom of menopausal changes. Menopause at the age of 45 is still considered normal and not early. Since you have had another period, if it ends within a week, no treatment is needed. Rest and avoid getting colds are sufficient. In addition to treatment, it's important to maintain a light diet and a positive mood. Only with a good mindset and adequate sleep can you recover quickly and be free from illness.
