Menopause, a word that makes women freak out, many women know that menopause means aging, so they are extremely afraid of it. In fact, for menopause, although we should be vigilant but do not have to be overly nervous, this is the inevitable stage of women's transition from the reproductive period to old age, what we can do is to understand menopause, face menopause, pay attention to maintenance, delay menopause and pass menopause smoothly.
After the age of 40, women begin to enter perimenopause one after another, and the average life expectancy of women is about 80 years old.
What is menopause?
Menopause, also known as perimenopause, is a transitional period for women that gradually declines from a vigorous state to a complete disappearance of ovarian function, including menopause and a period of time before and after menopause.
Female menopause can be divided into premenopausal (clinical manifestations of irregular menstrual cycles), menopause (complete cessation of menstruation for more than 6 consecutive months) and postmenopause, the whole process of about 2 5 years or longer.
Every woman needs to pay attention to menopausal health management, which is medically known as menopause management, to alleviate menopause-related symptoms and prevent chronic diseases in middle-aged and elderly women.
Be wary of early menopause.
Under normal circumstances, the average woman should enter menopause around the age of 45 to 55, and the symptoms of menopause mostly occur in women before and after menopause 2 to 3 years. However, in recent years, more and more women have early menopause, and even some women have entered menopause before the age of 40, with declining physical functions and accelerated aging, affecting women's physical and mental health.
So why does female menopause premature?
Ovarian maintenance is not taken seriously
The occurrence of menopause is closely related to ovarian function. The phenomenon of ovarian function decline occurs from time to time, and many women still do not pay attention to ovarian maintenance and ovarian function decline, and often miss the opportunity to delay ovarian aging, resulting in early menopause.
Life and work are stressful
With the continuous development of society, the pace of life is accelerating, social competition is fierce, work pressure is high, coupled with some family conflicts and burdens, resulting in long-term mental tension in women, which is easy to cause endocrine disorders and early menopausal symptoms.
Eating an unreasonable diet
In addition to the age of female menopause is related to factors such as genetics and reproductive history, women who have been excessively active for a long time are also prone to enter menopause early. Excessive ** can cause fat deficiency, leading to endocrine disorders, symptoms such as irregular menstruation, premature menopause and even premature aging.
How to get through menopause smoothly?
The essence of menopause is ovarian failure, and the fluctuating and deficient estrogen leads to a variety of related symptoms. Women should have a sense of health management, pay attention to ovarian maintenance, avoid early menopause, reconcile menopausal symptoms, prevent related diseases, and improve health and quality of life.
Pay attention to ovarian maintenance
The root cause of female menopausal syndrome is the decline of ovarian function, the decline of estrogen and progesterone, and the maintenance of the ovaries should be paid attention to, the viability of ovarian cells should be improved, the hormone level should be kept stable, and the symptoms of menopause should be alleviated.
Eat right
Eat more fresh fruits and vegetables and whole grains, ensure the intake of milk and meat, control sugar, reduce salt, quit smoking and limit alcohol, ensure rich and balanced nutrition, and meet the body's metabolic needs.
Develop good habits
Avoid staying up late, ensure adequate sleep, carry out regular exercise, enhance physical fitness, ensure the normal function of organs, and naturally delay the decline of the body.
Stay in a good mood
Arrange daily work, life and family affairs reasonably, relax and maintain physical and mental health.
Menopause is a manifestation of the body's natural aging, so you don't need to worry too much. However, a woman's early menopause indicates a rapid decline in ovarian function and various bodily functions, which will not only lead to changes in appearance, but also affect physical health.
Therefore, the majority of female friends do not need to be overly afraid of menopause, but should not be careless, should go to the hospital regularly for ovarian health examination, pay attention to the daily maintenance of the ovaries, and prevent the decline of ovarian function. Only by facing up to and embracing menopause can we achieve an elegant turn in life.
