Different women experience menopause at varying times, but most women start experiencing menopause symptoms around their 40s or 50s.<\/p>\n
Menopause is just another stage of life for women, but sometimes the emotionally and physically upsetting symptoms can affect a woman\u2019s happiness. However, many symptoms of menopause are treatable with the help of medication, therapies, and other treatments.<\/p>\n<\/div>
How should you take care of your body after menopause?<\/strong><\/h3><\/div>It\u2019s important to adjust how you take care of your body after menopause so you can maintain your optimal health. You might hear that some of your friends your age complain about common health complications:<\/p>\n
\n- Heart problems<\/li>\n
- Calcium deficiency<\/li>\n
- Vaginal dryness<\/li>\n
- Weight gain<\/li>\n
- Lower libido<\/li>\n
- Heart disease<\/li>\n
- Brittle bones<\/li>\n
- Urinary incontinence<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Osteoporosis is another common problem during menopause. Estrogen helps keep your bones healthy, so when it plummets with menopause you\u2019re more likely to suffer from osteoporosis problems like bone loss, brittle bones, and bone breaks. One out of two women over the age of 50 break a bone due to osteoporosis.<\/p>\n
The practitioners at Maetozo Total Woman\u2019s Care of Saint Augustine can help you avoid preventable health problems by coaching you on how to live a healthy lifestyle. After menopause, you may need to adjust your diet and exercise routine to maintain a healthy weight and avoid heart and other health issues. Additionally, you might need to take calcium supplements to prevent bone fractures.<\/p>\n
Don\u2019t be afraid to bring up medical issues like vaginal dryness, lower libido, and urinary incontinence during your next appointment with Dr. Maetozo. These disorders are treatable and open communication with your healthcare provider helps you solve these issues sooner rather than later.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
What are the common symptoms of menopause?<\/strong><\/h3><\/div>Hot flashes are the most well-known symptom of menopause. In fact, over 75% of women experience hot flashes during menopause. However, menopause can also produce a variety of symptoms, which include:<\/p>\n
\n- Weight gain<\/li>\n
- Lower libido<\/li>\n
- Chills<\/li>\n
- Night sweats<\/li>\n
- Insomnia<\/li>\n
- Mood disorders<\/li>\n
- Vaginal dryness<\/li>\n
- Slower metabolism<\/li>\n
- Thin hair<\/li>\n
- Dry skin<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
For some women, these symptoms are just minor annoyances and can be addressed through moderate lifestyle changes. However, for other women, these symptoms may cause further health complications.<\/p>\n<\/div>
How is menopause treated?<\/strong><\/h3><\/div>Menopause can\u2019t be cured, but there are plenty of treatment options that can reduce the symptoms and even lessen the health risks associated with menopause. Some treatments focus on individual symptoms, like vaginal lubricants or estrogen-based creams to reduce dryness and pain during intercourse. Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) offers relief for a broader array of symptoms by supplementing the body\u2019s natural hormones. Bioidentical as well as synthetic hormones and other medications also may be useful in reducing some menopause-related health risks. HRT can be administered with patches, pills, pellets, and other natural and synthetic treatment options. Your dedicated provider at Maetozo Total Woman\u2019s Care of Saint Augustine will work with you to figure out the best treatment option.<\/p>\n<\/div>
Is HRT safe?<\/strong><\/h3><\/div>Today\u2019s HRT uses bioidentical hormones with the same chemical structure as naturally-produced hormones, for significantly lower risk of side effects.<\/p>\n
