Does a 70-year-old woman still produce estrogen?

Most seventy-year-old women are in menopause. Although the ovaries stop secreting estrogen, the androgens secreted by the adrenal glands and the interstitial cells of the ovaries will be converted into estrogen. Seventy-year-old women’s ovarian function has mostly declined, at this time the ovaries have stopped ovulation and secretion of estrogen, but the menopausal women will still have a small amount of estrogen in the body, because the interstitial cells of the ovaries and the adrenal glands will secrete a certain amount of androgens, and in the conversion enzyme, androgens will be converted to estrogen. However, the level of estrogen in a seventy-year-old woman is much lower than that in her non-menopausal state because the level of estrogen secreted by the interstitial cells of the ovaries and the adrenal glands is lower. If a menopausal woman experiences any physical discomfort, she can go to the hospital in time and follow the doctor’s instructions for standardized examination and treatment.
