Entering the “Menopause Age” is normal and becomes familiar at a certain age to change from middle age to old age. However, a big problem is that many people do not know the symptoms, or how much their body and mind must be changed. Therefore, here is some information so that a good self–care regimen can be appropriate, including no effects to those around you as well.
What is the “Menopause Age”?
The menopausal age is when a woman enters menopause. Thus, the ovary cannot produce estrogen and progesterone hormones (female hormone group). It is very easy to also observe the sign. One year of missing your periods is a sign that you are going to fully reach the menopause age. The average age of Thai women is around 48–52 years.
It is not just women. Men themselves can enter this condition of age as well. The average age begins around 42–45 years. Less testosterone is produced. Muscles and bones start to deteriorate with physical and emotional changes just like women.
What are the symptoms? It is not difficult to notice.
When entering the “menopause age,” both men and women will have very similar psychological symptoms and physical changes such as:
- Feeling pain in the joints, bones, and osteoporosis in some people.
- Feeling of hot flashes on the face, neck and chest, which are often accompanied by sweating and palpitations. The symptoms appear intermittently, but interfere with daily life.
- Thinking too much and feeling stressed, worried, panicked about some things which have not happened yet. Some people have depression.
- Having a strong temper and feeling easily irritated, similar to people with bipolar temperament.
- Experiencing hair loss, belly fat easily. Women often have vaginal dryness, itching, or infection.
- Markedly decreasing in sexual desire, especially among men.
- Difficulty sleeping at night with a decreased number of hours for sleep.
Manage menopausal problems for happiness in life and those around you
Even though menopausal problems are common, this can affect people around you. Self–care is therefore very important. In addition to adjusting towards a new lifestyle, such as eating healthy foods, exercising regularly, meditating and checking your health regularly, having a good helper like food supplements is another option.
