Can ovarian maintenance really slow down ovarian function? Under normal circumstances, the ovaries are located in the pelvic cavity, with the bladder in front and the rectum behind, and cannot be touched when lying down. Therefore, the general massage technique can not touch the ovaries at all, the essential oil is even more unlikely to penetrate, at most can penetrate the skin, it is impossible to have an effect on the ovaries. The ovaries are the gonadal organs of women, and they have two main functions, one is reproductive, that is, the ovaries regularly produce eggs to give birth to new life. The other function of the ovaries is the endocrine function, which produces estrogen, progesterone and androgens, each of which is of great importance to women. The main function of estrogen for women is to promote the development and maintenance of the internal and external genital organs (such as the uterus and vagina) and secondary sexual characteristics (such as the mammary glands), such as the fullness and bulging of the breasts, the appearance of pubic and axillary hair, and the skin’s softness and roundness. At the same time, estrogen has an effect on many other organs throughout the body. The presence of sufficient estrogen facilitates the deposition of calcium salts in the bones to maintain normal bone quality and quantity. Unlike other organs of the body, the ovaries enter a process of constant decline from birth. Let’s look at how menopause develops in women? The development of follicles in the human ovary begins in the embryonic period. At birth, the ovary has about 150,000 to 500,000 follicles, and after puberty, the oocytes gradually decrease. After puberty, the number of oocytes gradually decreases. During the reproductive years, only about 300-400 oocytes mature and are discharged through ovulation, while the rest of the follicles degenerate on their own. As the number of residual follicles in the ovary decreases, the estrogen level gradually decreases and a series of menopausal symptoms associated with low estrogen appear; when the number of residual follicles in the ovary is less than a certain number, ovulation and menstruation will no longer occur, i.e. menopause. Usually, the average age of menopause for women in China is around 49 years old, and menopause before the age of 40 is called early menopause, which means premature ovarian failure. As the number of follicles in each woman’s body is certain from birth, this determines her ovarian function, of course, each person’s ovarian function is also related to some diseases, external means is difficult to prolong its function, many women in menopause estrogen levels have reached the state of menopause, hope that doctors can delay the arrival of menopause through drugs, in fact, it is also impossible, if you hope to maintain their Youthfulness and restoration of menstruation can only be achieved through sex hormone supplementation therapy. The female menstrual cycle is determined by the coordination of the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis, which is mutually regulated and influenced by each other, and the regularity of menstruation reflects the normal function of this endocrine axis. The secretion function of each organ is influenced by other organs, and ovarian maintenance alone cannot improve the hormone secretion of other endocrine organs, nor can it achieve the activation effect mentioned. So from a scientific point of view, ovarian maintenance is questionable. If ovarian maintenance is really effective and can really extend the life of the ovaries to 60 or 70 years old, this means that women will still have menstruation in their 70s and 80s, and too much estrogen will have side effects on the female body and may induce breast cancer, endometrial cancer and other diseases. The function of the ovaries can be scientifically tested. For women between the ages of 30 and 40, their body estrogen levels are already high enough. If the ovaries are artificially stimulated to secrete large amounts of estrogen, it can be very dangerous for organs such as the breast and uterus. For a middle-aged woman, balanced nutrition, moderate exercise, adequate sleep, a harmonious sex life, a good state of mind, a happy mood and other healthy lifestyles are conducive to ovarian maintenance.
