Patient's question:
Since early February 2012, I have been experiencing dizziness and tinnitus. After seeking medical attention, I received intravenous fluids and traditional Chinese medicine treatments. Subsequently, I developed symptoms such as nausea and vomiting, anxiety and fear, palpitations and shortness of breath, fatigue and weakness, and a sensation of throat obstruction. My appetite is generally normal, and my sleep is acceptable. I am usually introverted, and there have been no major changes in my daily life, relationships, or work during this period. The symptoms have been occurring intermittently, with varying durations each time.Doctor's answer:
Menopause combined with depression or anxiety is highly likely. Generally, a course of treatment lasts for 3 months. It is recommended to use traditional Chinese medicine for treatment, as it has fewer side effects and produces good results. The specific duration of treatment depends on the recovery of the condition.The occurrence of menopausal syndrome not only affects a woman's physical health but can also lead to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to undergo a leukorrhea test at the gynecology department of a hospital to identify the cause and then receive symptomatic treatment. Pay attention to dietary regulation in daily life, consuming light and easily digestible foods. Avoid spicy, stimulating, and cold foods.
