Menopause

Menopause is the point in time in a woman’s life when she stops menstruating, and her reproductive system starts winding down, causing a wide range of distressing and debilitating indications. The diagnosis is usually made in retrospect when the woman has missed her menstrual cycles for over 12 months. This is a gradual process, wherein the period cycles become infrequent and then completely stops.

Symptoms

Menopause is associated with severe depletion of ovarian follicles and hypo-functioning of the ovaries. As a result, there is very little secretion of the reproductive hormone – estrogen and androgen.

Some of the symptoms of menopause are:

• Hot flushes: Here the person may feel a sudden increase in heat in the body, especially in the face and neck. This is experienced by about 75% of the women
• Night Sweats: In this case, the person may wake up at night, completely drenched in their perspiration, despite the room’s temperature being absolutely normal
• Psychological changes like mood swings and depression
• Vaginal Dryness: Due to lower vaginal secretion, the vagina will be more prone to infections, and intercourse becomes a painful process
• Other symptoms like osteoporosis and weight gain

Causes

There are several known causes of early menopause, although sometimes the cause remains unknown.

Genetics: When there is no obvious medical reason for early menopause, the cause often lies in the genes. If a woman is able to find out when her mother started menopause can provide clues as to when she will start her own.
