Menopause brings significant changes in your body. Your ovaries gradually stop producing the hormone estrogen. The level of other hormones in your body also declines.<\/p>\n
Because these changes can be significant, it\u2019s a good time to consult with Dr. Greenspan to manage the symptoms of menopause. She may recommend tests, such as a bone density evaluation to assess your risk for osteoporosis. Although women start losing bone in their 30s, the process speeds up after you\u2019re in menopause.<\/p>\n
What are the symptoms of menopause?<\/strong><\/h2>\nEach woman\u2019s experience with menopause is unique. In the run-up to menopause, you may experience certain perimenopausal symptoms. These include but aren\u2019t limited to:<\/p>\n
\n- Hot flashes<\/li>\n
- Insomnia<\/li>\n
- Tiredness<\/li>\n
- Vaginal dryness, burning, or pain<\/li>\n
- Irritability<\/li>\n
- Memory problems<\/li>\n
- Less desire for sex<\/li>\n
- Incontinence<\/li>\n
- Weight gain<\/li>\n
- Change in your menstrual cycles<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Up to half of postmenopausal women notice their vaginal health has changed.<\/p>\n
How is menopause treated?<\/strong><\/h2>\nDr. Greenspan performs a physical exam and takes a detailed health history to understand the symptoms you\u2019re experiencing. As a certified menopause practitioner, she provides specialized experience in menopause management.<\/p>\n
She discusses options, such as hormone replacement therapy to make up for the loss of estrogen and to alleviate your menopausal symptoms. You may take the hormones in a variety of ways, including:<\/p>\n
\n- Creams<\/li>\n
- Pills<\/li>\n
- Patches<\/li>\n
- Sprays<\/li>\n
- Gels<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
A vaginal ring also can deliver hormones throughout your body. Your recommended treatment depends on certain factors, including whether or not you still have a uterus.<\/p>\n
How is vaginal dryness treated in menopause?<\/strong><\/h2>\nIf you\u2019re less interested in sex due to vaginal dryness, Dr. Greenspan offers a noninvasive, non-hormonal laser therapy called MonaLisa Touch. The treatment is performed in the office, requires no downtime, and produces only minimal side effects.<\/p>\n
MonaLisa Touch uses laser energy to stimulate a healing response in your vaginal tissues. The treatment takes only five minutes. Dr. Greenspan generally recommends three procedures staggered over 18 weeks.<\/p>\n
