Patient's question:
What medication should I take for hot flashes and insomnia during menopause at 52? I'm already 52 years old, considered an elderly person, but I can't sleep at night because I feel hot. I'm sleeping with the air conditioner on, but I still feel hot. What kind of medicine should I take to treat this condition?Doctor's answer:
A 52-year-old female patient has experienced a recurrence of neurosis during menopause, with poor sleep quality as a manifestation. The cause of this condition should be considered as a result of autonomic nervous system dysfunction. Sufficient rest is crucial, and maintaining a cheerful mood is also important. Under the guidance of a physician, the patient should take Gamma-Oryzanol tablets and Shushenling capsules. If the treatment is not effective, an electrocardiogram, echocardiogram, and other relevant examinations should be conducted. Traditional Chinese medicine regulation is also an option.
