"Menopause" must be heard of in daily life, this is a special stage that every woman must go through!
In 1994, WHO proposed a new concept for menopause, naming it "perimenopausal".
That is to say, a series of symptoms of women's menopause, such as personality changes, hot flashes, insomnia and early awakening, etc., are actually due to the imminent arrival of menopause and the disorder of hormone secretion in the body.
In the simplest terms, menopause is actually a transition stage in which female gonadal function begins to decline to complete loss.
It includes three stages: premenopause, menopause, and later periods. According to the current clinical data, mainland women basically have complete menopause before the age of 55, especially menopause before the age of 50.
From the point of view of menopause alone, the only impact on women is the loss of ovarian function and the loss of fertility.
However, in the female age group, the various organs of the body are also gradually aging, affected by endocrine imbalances, and diseases are likely to come to the door, such as the following three problems are easy to find menopausal women:
1. Osteoporosis: This is a common systemic metabolic bone disease, which refers to bone loss, bone mass reduction, and bone microstructural changes. Once osteoporosis occurs, it is not only easy to have back pain in normal times, but also may cause fracture problems.
In clinical view, women around the age of 35 is the peak of bone quality, and then with the continuous increase of age, bone mass begins to gradually lose, especially after entering menopause, affected by hormone fluctuations, the rate of bone loss will accelerate.
If you do not pay attention to calcium supplementation and long-term sedentary, it will also accelerate the loss of bone, and eventually cause the appearance of osteoporosis;
2, vaginitis: many people mistakenly believe that only women during the sexually active period may be found by vaginitis. As everyone knows, postmenopausal women may also have vaginal inflammation.
Because at this stage, the female ovarian function has declined, the level of estrogen has decreased, the vaginal wall has gradually shrunk, the vaginal mucosa has become thinner and thinner, and the glycogen content in the epithelial cells has gradually decreased, which will cause the local resistance of the vagina to decrease, and pathogenic bacteria are easy to invade and multiply, resulting in the appearance of infection.
In particular, women who do not pay attention to hygiene and do not pay attention to cleanliness before and after couples' lives are more likely to be found by geriatric vaginitis;
3. Cardiovascular problems: In mainland clinical practice, nearly 8.9% of menopausal women have pseudoanginal symptoms, sometimes accompanied by palpitations, chest tightness and other symptoms.
In addition, nearly 15.2% of women have mild hypertension, which is characterized by elevated systolic blood pressure, low diastolic blood pressure, and a state of paroxysmal seizures.
Not only that, but to know that after entering this age group, the body is aging year by year, and the blood vessels of the whole body are no exception, if women do not pay attention to maintenance, it is easy to develop problems such as atherosclerosis, hypertension or metabolic disorders, which in turn increases the possibility of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.
All in all, menopause means that women have entered the aging period, and the focus of women at this time should not be on whether they are menopause, but on health.
If you want to be healthy and stay away from diseases in the future, what female friends can do now is to eat a scientific, healthy and regular diet, regular physical exercise, and maintain adequate sleep.
In addition, female friends should also pay attention to physical examinations, and regular physical and gynecological examinations should be carried out according to the doctor's recommendations, so that there is no place for diseases to hide.
