What is menopause?
Menopause is the natural transition from a woman’s reproductive years into her post-reproductive phase. Most women experience this change in their late 40s to early 50s as the ovaries gradually produce fewer eggs, leading to a decline in estrogen and progesterone levels.
Menopause is officially defined as having gone 12 consecutive months without a menstrual period, marking the end of your ability to become pregnant.
What are the symptoms
of menopause?
While some women welcome this transition, others experience a variety of physical and emotional changes due to decreasing hormone levels. Common symptoms can include:
- Hot flashes and night sweats
- Weight gain and changes in metabolism
- Vaginal dryness and painful intercourse
- Loss of breast and bone mass
- Urinary incontinence
- Sleep disturbances
- Mood changes, anxiety, or depression
The severity and frequency of symptoms can vary widely. Some women have only mild effects, while others may experience significant disruptions to their quality of life.
How is menopause treated?
For women whose symptoms impact daily life, Dr. Ahdoot offers hormone replacement therapy (HRT). By providing a carefully tailored dose of estrogen and, if needed, progesterone, HRT helps restore hormone balance and relieve many menopausal symptoms.
The dosage and duration of therapy are customized for each patient, and Dr. Ahdoot monitors progress to adjust treatment as needed.
In addition to HRT, lifestyle changes can significantly improve post-menopausal health, such as:
- Regular exercise
- Balanced nutrition and supplements
- Pelvic floor strengthening exercises
- Stress reduction and relaxation techniques
Combining hormone therapy with these lifestyle adjustments helps women maintain energy, comfort, and overall well-being well into their post-reproductive years.
If menopause is affecting your quality of life, call Dr. Ahdoot’s office or use the online scheduling tool to arrange a consultation and explore treatment options.
