Is it menopause if you sweat profusely, feel weak in your hands and feet, and have a racing heart?

Patient's question:

Recently, I've been sweating profusely, feeling weak in my hands and feet, and having a racing heart. Plus, my mood has been particularly bad—I tend to get angry over small things. My physical health has also deteriorated significantly; I've caught colds several times in the past month.
Hello, could this be menopause?

Doctor's answer:

There is a recurrence of palpitations, shortness of breath, physical fatigue, sweating, sweaty palms and soles, etc. Most of these are caused by menopausal syndrome. When symptoms reappear, appropriate oral traditional Chinese medicine can be taken for conditioning and treatment, such as common calming oral liquid, Xiaoyao pills, and gamma-oryzanol tablets, etc. In terms of diet, you can eat more yam, beef and mutton, goji berries, etc., which can also help alleviate the symptoms.
