Patient's question:
I just turned 40, and I have a very high sex drive, having sex 3-4 times a week. But now I'm menopausal. I heard that women's eggs are limited, and frequent sexual activity leads to more ovulations. So that's why it happened earlier.Doctor's answer:
Menopause is generally not related to sexual activity. It is primarily caused by a decrease in estrogen levels, leading to the decline of ovarian function. It is important to maintain a positive mood and engage in appropriate sexual activity without restraint, as this can contribute to a better overall well-being.The onset of menopause not only affects a woman's physical health but can also lead to the development of gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is advisable to visit a gynecologist for a vaginal examination to identify the underlying cause and receive targeted treatment. Additionally, it is important to drink plenty of water and maintain good personal hygiene.
