Venkata Ramana Menopause occurs when a women stops ovulating and her periods ceases. Most women reach menopause between 45 and 55 years, with an normal age around 50. But about 1% reaches it before 40, which is known as early menopause or premature ovarian failure. For women in their teens and 20’s the loss of their fertility is devastating. They will also experience a long-life period of postmenopausal life, and hormonal replacement therapy may be advised. Symptoms: Ø Menstrual cycle changes Ø Changes in the bleeding pattern Ø Hot flushes Ø Sweats Ø Urinary problems such as incontinence or magnified frequency of urination. Ø humourous vagina Ø Mood changes Ø Weight changes etc Are many of the basic symptoms. Prevention: We can prevent early Menopause, by preventing unwanted surgeries, of the uterus or the ovaries unless there is strong indication for their removal. Such Surgeries can lead to autoimmune diseases such as diabetes, Rheumatoid arthritis and thyroid disorders. Conserving flat a single ovary can help in preventing the onset menopause. Urban women have access to information or counseling, but unfortunately the women in rural areas of Asia have no much knowledge. The good news for those who would like to rule out doubts about the onset of menopause will soon be available in the form of LH Kits ( Leutinizing hormone ) to check their ovulation especially used with infertility patients. While stress cannot be over emphasized, it has a role in temporary or long cessation of periods. Treatment: Generally early menopause too is aerated in a similar way as menopause itself, through HRT ( Hormone Replacement Therapy ), life style modification,calcium and good nutrition. HRT – It must be borne in mind that an extensive study shows that HRT is not a protection against heart diseases as was believed before and infact not quite the “happy pill” – that women had thought is acknowledged up to the age of menopause.
