What can be done about insomnia during menopause?

Patient's question:

Doctor, hello. My mother is quite old now. It's possible that she entered menopause suddenly due to many heavy impacts previously. Recently, I've noticed that she always can't sleep. So, how should we deal with menopausal insomnia?

Doctor's answer:

According to the situation you described, the symptoms of menopause itself can manifest as signs of neurosis. It is recommended that you take her to the gynecology outpatient department or the endocrinology outpatient specialist clinic of a Class III-A public hospital in your local area for further follow-up. It is also advisable to have a blood test for the six major sex hormones as soon as possible. If the estrogen level is found to be too low, estrogen can be taken orally to implement hormone replacement therapy. Wishing you good health.
