Pay attention to the health of elderly women to make the sunset more red September 19 is the Chung Yeung Festival in China. With the increase of the proportion of the elderly population, elderly diseases have attracted a high degree of attention from the whole society. During this period, most elderly women always pay special attention to the prevention and treatment of common diseases of the elderly, such as heart and cerebrovascular diseases and diabetes, but tend to ignore the threat of gynecological diseases. Many elderly women seldom have gynecological checkups because they are not itchy or painful, or they feel that the problem is not serious, or they are ashamed to talk about it. It is not honorable to see gynecological diseases for people of several tens of years old, etc. The reporter learned in Nanjing Maternal and Child Health Hospital that malignant tumors ranked second among the causes of death of elderly women. The top 10 malignant tumors in elderly women include gynecological tumors, and the gynecological diseases that are likely to occur in postmenopausal elderly women are geriatric vaginitis, cervical cancer, ovarian cancer and endometrial cancer. The incidence of geriatric vaginitis is 22.9%. The incidence of tumors, especially malignant tumors, is high in this group. Endometrial cancer is a common malignant tumor in postmenopausal women, with patients over 50 years old accounting for 75% to 90% of the incidence. Another group of common diseases in elderly women are pelvic organ prolapse and urinary incontinence. The literature shows that pelvic organ prolapse (uterus, vagina) and urinary incontinence occur in 38% of middle-aged and elderly women. The manifestations are prolapse of vaginal masses, frequent urination, incontinence and urinary incontinence, especially when coughing, straining and laughing. It seriously affects the quality of life of older women. Modern women should pay more attention to perimenopause Nanjing Women’s and Children’s Hospital gynecology director Su Yiping told reporters, under normal circumstances, the female age of menopause at about 50 years old, due to the modern women are under increasing pressure in all aspects, before the age of 40 years into the menopause, called premature ovarian failure. Many women can pass through perimenopause naturally, but some women will develop perimenopausal syndrome, mental tension, mood swings, unstable blood pressure, menstrual cycle disorders and other symptoms, perimenopausal syndrome on women’s physical and mental blow is very big, the body will feel hot and cold, impatient temper will unconsciously erupt, at this time, children often just go to work, life, the pace of work are very fast, to Mother’s health is easier to ignore, can not smoothly through the perimenopause women, health will quickly go downhill. Director Su said, for women with perimenopausal syndrome, first of all, we should pay attention to mental guidance, so that women understand its physiological characteristics, to lift the patient’s tension. At the same time, we should pay attention to nutrition, strengthen exercise, in order to gradually adjust and adapt to this change process. In serious cases, we can go to the hospital for detailed examination and symptomatic treatment. In the middle and old age, fibroids are very common, 20% to 25% of adult women suffer from fibroids. When it grows to the size of more than 8 weeks of pregnancy, the patient will feel it from the lower abdomen, which is hard and rather like a spherical rubber; ovarian tumors are also more common in middle-aged and elderly women. Once the symptoms appear, they are often in advanced stage. These can make middle-aged and old women look like they have a blossoming body. Director Su also reminded, pay attention to the delay of menopause, to pay attention to some inexplicable body conditions, if older women still have menstrual flow should pay special attention to the possibility of breast cancer, ovarian cancer, postmenopausal bleeding generally refers to a year after menopause and vaginal bleeding or bloody discharge, someone has done 1085 cases of postmenopausal bleeding survey, the results found that 28% are malignant tumors, mainly cervical cancer and endometrial cancer; to beware of If you can still feel your ovaries after menopause, you should be careful, because they should be shrinking and getting smaller. The incidence of tumors and other chronic diseases in middle-aged and older women increases with age. Director Su told reporters several groups of figures: the high incidence of cervical cancer is 35-39 and 60-64 years old, the high incidence of endometrial cancer is 58-61 years old, the high incidence of ovarian cancer is 50-60 years old, and the high incidence of breast cancer is 50-60 years old. The high incidence of breast cancer is 45-55 years old. The perimenopause is the transitional period when the ovarian function gradually declines and finally tends to disappear, and it is also the most common cancerous period for women, followed by the old age, mostly after 60 years old, when inflammation is not common, but it is also the period of high incidence of tumors. Director Su said that early detection and early treatment of malignant tumors can help improve the quality of life of the elderly, modern people are busy with work, but they should still pay attention to the physical and mental health of the elderly, pay attention to whether their original habits have changed, and regularly accompany their mothers to do medical checkups, while the middle-aged and elderly can also observe their physical conditions through self-measurement, which can be carried out in four aspects: blood: normal menstruation is an important sign of women’s health. The bleeding other than this is abnormal bleeding and must be investigated for its cause. The normal leucorrhea is a small amount of white and slightly sticky secretion. Pus-like leucorrhea, bloody leucorrhea, rice slop-like leucorrhea, water-like leucorrhea, etc. are all abnormal. Lump: Lump is the entity of tumor. If you touch a lump in pelvis or lower abdomen, you should go to see a doctor quickly. Pain: Lower abdominal pain, lower back pain, pain during sexual intercourse. Generally speaking, pain may not be an early symptom of tumor, usually it is caused when the tumor is quite large in size or invades quite deep.
