Patient's question:
Grandma has been having a bad temper recently due to menopause. She is particularly irritable and also has some neurosis, making it difficult for her to sleep. The doctor said it's high blood pressure caused by menopause. I don't know what to do about menopausal high blood pressure?Doctor's answer:
Women during menopause often experience endocrine disorders because of insufficient estrogen excretion. This can easily lead to irritability and poor sleep in women. It is appropriate to regulate the endocrine system and take more herbal supplements that boost qi and nourish blood. Additionally, it is important to take blood pressure medication every day. In terms of diet, it is essential to maintain a low-salt, low-protein, and low-cholesterol diet. It is also advisable to keep a positive mood and breathe fresh air as much as possible.
