About menopause symptoms
Menopause is the point at which a woman has gone twelve months without a period, marking the end of her natural fertility. It usually occurs between the ages of 45 and 55. The fall in oestrogen can cause hot flushes, night sweats, sleep disturbance, mood changes, vaginal dryness and discomfort during intercourse, urinary urgency, joint aches, thinning hair, dry skin and weight gain around the waist. In the longer term it raises the risk of osteoporosis and heart disease, so bone density, blood pressure, cholesterol, blood sugar and thyroid function are worth checking. Any bleeding after menopause must be reported to a doctor without delay. Weight-bearing exercise, calcium and vitamin D, a balanced diet, stopping smoking, limiting alcohol and managing stress all help, and hormone therapy is an option to discuss with your doctor.
