Doctor's answer:

Menopause is a special period, usually occurring between the ages of 40 and 50. During this time, ovarian function gradually declines, and the production of estrogen also decreases. To alleviate menopausal symptoms, it is generally recommended to consume more soy products rich in isoflavones.
Menopause is a gynecological condition that is prone to occur. During treatment, women need to pay attention to their self-care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is advised that patients avoid sexual activity during treatment and maintain good hygiene. Finally, we wish all female patients a speedy recovery.
