Menopausal Symptom Management

Understanding Menopause

Menopause marks a significant transition in a woman's life, signifying the end of her reproductive years. It is a natural biological process that typically occurs between the ages of 45 and 55. During this time, the ovaries gradually produce less estrogen and progesterone, leading to the cessation of menstruation and various physical and emotional changes.

Recognizing the Symptoms

While menopause is a natural part of aging, the accompanying symptoms can significantly impact a woman's quality of life. Common symptoms include hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings, vaginal dryness, sleep disturbances, decreased libido, fatigue, and cognitive changes. These symptoms can vary in intensity and duration, affecting each woman differently.

Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT)

Hormone replacement therapy is given to replace the hormones that ovaries stopped producing in menopause. It is used to relieve the symptoms that perimenopausal and menopausal women are experiencing.
