Patient's question:
My grandmother has been menopausal for several years. I would like to consult on her behalf to see if she can still get gynecological diseases after menopause?Doctor's answer:
Women can still get gynecological diseases after menopause. After menopause, ovarian function declines, estrogen levels decrease, vaginal mucosa atrophy, and resistance increases, making it easier to develop recurrent atrophic vaginitis and endometrial polyps. Daily hygiene should be paid attention to, underwear and pants should be changed frequently, and antibiotics should not be used indiscriminately. A regular lifestyle and appropriate exercise are recommended to enhance physical fitness. For severe gynecological disease patients, it is advised to seek medical attention promptly and follow the doctor's advice for timely treatment. Avoid blindly relying on advertisements or over-the-counter medications, as this may worsen the condition. The above suggestions are for reference only. It is hoped that the above answer can help you. Thank you.
