What are the symptoms of menopause in women? In general, the symptoms of menopause are divided into two parts: physical and mental. Mentally, menopausal women tend to feel bad temper, poor memory and insomnia. When a wife goes from being a good little sheep to a fierce tiger, menopause is the time to go through. Compared to the gentle and watery days of the past, women during menopause are odd-tempered, nagging, and angry, and they toss and turn at night, often with hot flashes and night sweats. For women, menopause is a transitional period when ovarian function gradually declines from a state of vigor to complete disappearance, including menopause and the period before and after menopause. 90% of women experience symptoms of varying degrees, affecting their health and quality of life. Typically, postmenopausal women experience the following three major symptoms during menopause: 1. Hot flashes – are a frequent symptom encountered by menopausal women. Without any trigger, the hot sensation spreads rapidly from the chest to the face and both upper limbs, sometimes accompanied by panic and sweating. Other patients have nighttime hot flashes, often waking up in the middle of the night and sweating profusely. Hot flashes and night sweats occur because of the lack of estrogen, resulting in an anarchic state of vasoconstriction and diastole. 2, palpitations – that is, panic, is also one of the most common symptoms of menopause. Menopausal women say that this feeling is just like being a thief, very unpleasant. When the outside world has a sudden noise, sometimes the movement is not big, but they feel a panic, heart bursting and beating non-stop, it takes a long time to gradually calm down. Repeated electrocardiograms, 24-hour electrocardiograms, and even plate exercise tests often show normal results, or at best, sinus tachycardia during an attack. 3. Back pain – an early symptom of osteoporosis in menopausal women. Studies have shown that menopause syndrome manifests itself differently and that most of this soreness is due to persistent tension in the erector spinae muscles. Early bone loss occurs mostly in the spine, where the vertebrae have a tendency to be compressed by gravity, making it seem more comfortable to hunch over, but life demands that people stand up straight and don’t get down. This way the vertical spinal muscles must be constantly tense to counteract this tendency to compression. Over time, the muscles continue to contract without relief, and then the back is sore. In addition to the physical symptoms, the psychological symptoms of menopause in women should not be ignored. Menopausal women tend to have the following psychological characteristics: 1. 2. Insufficient concentration and difficulty in concentrating their thoughts and energy. 3. Increased psychological sensitivity, easy to feel sensitive. 4. Memory is weakened. It should be noted that the above mentioned psychological characteristics of menopause are not common to all menopausal women, but appear only in some of them. In order to go through menopause smoothly, menopausal women should pay attention to the mental health of menopause, live and work according to the physical and mental characteristics of menopause, and should not act reluctantly in spite of the physical and mental changes, nor should they be cautious, worried and inactive. Some of the physical and psychological disorders of menopause are temporary and functional, so don’t be alarmed. Being optimistic and emotionally stable is the most important psychological condition to go through menopause successfully.
