Menopause and Gynaecological Different Issues with Women Post 40s

It's important to know when enough is enough. Menopause occurs when a woman no longer menstruates after a period of one year. It can happen earlier than 40 or even later than 50, but the average age happens to be 51 in the India, United States and other countries. At this point, menopause is considered as a natural process that every women experiences.


About Menopause and its changes


Gynaecologists agree that menopause isn't an age thing, but a hormonal state that starts to develop before you hit 45. The first stage of menopause that you go into called per menopause can start in your 40s. Per menopause is characterized by the sudden change in estrogen and progesterone hormones which cause several changes to occur.


Such changes include weight gain, a decrease in your body's metabolism, skin and hair issues plus mood swings as well as memory changes. Other symptoms include diarrhea and incontinence as well as vaginal dryness along with loss of libido, depression, osteopenia (a condition associated with weakened bones) and more.
