Patient's question:
Hello, doctor, my mother is 60 years old this year. My mother is now in menopause, and I don't know how to deal with it. So I would like to ask for some advice from a professional like you, on how to handle depression during menopause in the elderly. Thank you, doctor.Doctor's answer:
First, acupuncture and massage can be used to open, regulate, and nourish the body. Under the guidance of a doctor, Chinese herbal medicine can be used for repair and regulation. At the same time, behavioral therapy and psychological therapy can be conducted under the guidance of a psychologist for repair and regulation. It is important to always maintain a relaxed and pleasant mood, and to distract oneself in the future. One needs to actively break free from negative and low spirits and create a positive and healthy mindset.For perimenopausal patients, in addition to oral medication, it is also necessary to pay attention to self-care. During treatment, hygiene should be maintained, and the private area should always be kept clean. Finally, women patients are advised to have regular follow-up check-ups!
