Patient's question:
I'm only in my early 30s this year, and recently I've been feeling that my menstrual cycle has become particularly irregular. Additionally, various types of spots have reappeared on my face. He said it might be the onset of menopause. Hello. What is menopause? Why am I experiencing it at such a young age?Doctor's answer:
Hello, menopause refers to a series of physical changes that occur when a woman's ovaries gradually decline in function between the ages of 45 and 50, leading to a rise in estrogen levels in the body. These changes include the cessation of menstruation, atrophy of the uterus and vagina, skin becoming loose and dry, and dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system. At your current age of 30, your ovaries have started to decline in function, but menopause generally will not occur. It is recommended that you visit a gynecology or endocrinology department for a thorough examination and follow-up.
