Female menopause, symptoms

Probably every woman, whose age is approaching 40 years, with anxiety and excitement expects the onset of menopause( or menopause).And although this is a perfectly normal state of the woman's body, it is often perceived by many as a disease. This opinion is fundamentally wrong. Today we will talk in detail about the female menopause, symptoms.

The word "climax" is of Greek origin and is translated into Russian as a "ladder".In fact, this period is precisely the peculiar ladder of the transition from childbearing age to the period of "golden" maturity. Some women feel fine at this time and are even pleased with the absence of menstruation. Others complain of short-term ailments. But there are also those for whom this time is associated with constant headaches, excessive sweating, insomnia, fatigue.

Let's figure out what the female climax is like, how to recognize it and when it makes sense to consult a doctor.

Climax in itself is not a violation of the body. But due to the influence of various unfavorable environmental factors, frequent stresses, great physical and emotional stresses, such a natural process can cause a woman a lot of trouble.

For each woman, menopause occurs individually. It is not possible to say the exact age at which you will inevitably come through menopause. For some, this can be more than 50 years, for others a little over 40. Usually the average age at which the onset of menopause is expected is a period from 44 to 50 years. Climax after 52 years is called late, from 40 to 44 - early, but if it happened before 40, then menopause is called premature. Gynecologists note that the onset of menopause has hereditary manifestations, which means that the mother and daughter will come at about the same age. If, for some reason, the ovaries are removed from the women or their function is broken, this can lead to early menopause.

According to gynecologists, every 15th woman practically does not notice the symptoms of the onset of menopause. However, for 15% of women this period is so difficult that even requires dispensary or inpatient treatment. Of course, you should not be afraid of this in advance, but you still need to know about this.

Symptoms and menopause, the course of the climax

The onset of menopause begins with the of the period, which was called the "changepause".At this time, irregular irregular periods are noted, in some they become more frequent, in some, on the contrary, less often. This phenomenon is justified by changes in the hormonal background - the imbalance between hormones estrogen and gestagen.

The next stage of is the onset of complete menopause, when no monthly periods are observed for more than a year. Their absence indicates an almost complete cessation of the production of estrogen and gestagen by the body.

If a woman does not have a period of more than 3 years, this means that she is at the last "step" of menopause. This is the period of postmenopause.

All these periods can conceal various problems for women. The most common symptoms of menopause are the so-called "hot flashes", which are noted by about 80% of women. Tides represent a time when a woman without special reasons throws in the heat, the temperature rises, the vessels expand, sweat appears and the heart rate increases. Such a state can have a duration of 3 to 5 minutes and about 30 times a day. Especially often, tides come at night, which leads to insomnia and a depressed state. However, the onset of tides more than 20 times a day, gynecologists consider pathological, in this case it is required to consult a doctor.

At least an unpleasant manifestation of menopause may be pain, a burning sensation in the bladder area when urinating or urinating incontinence. The decrease in the production of estrogen changes the state of the acid - alkaline environment of the mucous membrane of the uterus and the vagina, it becomes more dry, exposed to various microorganisms. This is often accompanied by bacterial vaginosis, pain during sexual intercourse and changes in vaginal discharge. Sometimes, as a result of proliferation of the uterine lining, prolonged and profuse uterine bleeding may appear.

Due to the change in the hormonal background, is disturbed by the overall course of metabolic processes in the entire body of .Significantly, the amount of calcium in the bone tissue can decrease, which leads to diseases of the musculoskeletal system and joint pain. The elasticity of the vessels decreases, dry skin appears. Often there is a development of various cardiovascular diseases, the risk of stroke and heart attack increases.

When addressing such problems to doctors, women almost never focus their attention on the fact that they entered the menopause period. This leads to the fact that treatment is prescribed for each manifestation of menopause separately. In fact, the treatment of the consequence of the "illness" occurs, and not its cause. Whereas the only reason is a change in the hormonal background. Accordingly, treatment with the other - the intake of hormonal drugs. As with what drugs to take, only a doctor can determine, in no case should one begin independent treatment on the advice of friends or acquaintances.

To reduce the undesirable manifestations of menopause, you can sparing physical activity : swimming, dancing, aerobics or even working in your garden. However, you need to do this, of course, not when you felt weak and dizzy, but much earlier, even before the "period of change".

And, of course, you need to remember that the period of onset of menopause is just one of the steps of your life. At this age, the woman is still as beautiful and has as many( if not more) opportunities. Some women are so desperate and depressed that they even think about suicide. This is not an option! If you are having problems, treat yourself and continue to live a full, rich and interesting life, like thousands of other women around the world!
