The best remedies for menopause in 2022

With age, changes occur in the life of every woman, expressed in the gradual fading of the ability to conceive. This period is called menopause and occurs in most cases after 45 years. This condition is characterized by such unpleasant symptoms as severe headaches, irritability, hot flashes, and profuse sweating. To alleviate the condition, women are advised to take special drugs.

The concept of menopausal syndrome

In women of mature age, the ability to bear children is gradually reduced. This is expressed in the cessation of menstruation due to a decrease in the number of female sex hormones produced by estrogens.

At the beginning of the transition period, a hormonal imbalance is observed, expressed in fluctuations in the amount of estrogens. Against the background of the instability of the content of hormones, qualitative changes occur in the performance of the woman's organ systems. Because of this, a climacteric syndrome develops.

This condition is accompanied by the following manifestations:

• Hot flashes are expressed as a temporary reddening of the skin of the upper body, which occurs due to a sudden increase in temperature. For some women, such drastic changes cause dizziness.
• Severe sweating is most often observed at night. This condition leads to the fact that a woman is forced to change clothes often.
• In the vaginal area, there is a drying of the mucosa, causing burning and itching.

Additionally, women experience urinary incontinence, the skin becomes drier, and blood pressure can change dramatically. A woman often feels very irritable, cannot sleep normally at night. It becomes difficult for her to fulfill her professional duties due to a violation of attention. Even light loads lead to severe fatigue.

Due to hormonal imbalance in a woman, the menstrual cycle is lost. The frequency and volume of secretions change, gradually decreasing. Gradually, menstruation stops completely and menopause occurs.

A decrease in the amount of female hormones, and then a complete cessation of their production, affects the state of the endocrine system. This leads to the gradual death of sexual functions and significantly increases the likelihood of joint ailments, osteoporosis, obesity, diabetes and other dangerous diseases.
