Patient's question:
In the past one or two years, my menstrual cycle has been very irregular. Sometimes I only get my period every two or three months. The amount of blood flow is very little. Sometimes it doesn't go away completely, and then there's only a tiny bit of blood again. I'm very irritable, easily getting angry, have poor sleep at night, and tend to sweat a lot. Many people say I'm close to menopause. What kind of help would you like: What is the normal age for women to go through menopause?Doctor's answer:
The normal age for menopause is generally around 45 years old. If you play mahjong, menopause around the age of 50 is also considered normal. This age of menopause can also have a genetic component. If your mother experienced early menopause, you may also experience it early. For now, it's important to carefully observe the reasons that may lead to amenorrhea. Some possible causes include: endocrine disorders, uterine diseases, gynecological inflammation, emotional shock, medication effects, environmental changes, overexertion, and excessive mental stress, among others. In your case, it is more likely that the amenorrhea is caused by endocrine issues. It is recommended that you visit a hospital for relevant examinations and follow medical advice after confirmation. Pay attention to hygiene. Menopause is a very natural process, and medication is generally not recommended to shorten menstruation unless it occurs prematurely.
