Menopause is a normal part of a woman’s life, just like puberty. It is not a single event but a transitionary phase which can begin in the 40s and last until 50s or even 60s. Some women experience signs and symptoms of menopause long before the cessation of their monthly periods.
If a woman hasn’t had a period for 12 consecutive months, she is said to have reached menopause. This biological changeover is a crucial part of the ageing process.
The ovaries stop producing eggs, menstrual activity decreases and eventually ceases, and the body decreases the production of the female hormones estrogen and progesterone. Although it is associated with hormonal, physical, and psychosocial changes, menopause is not the end of a woman’s youth or sexual life.
Menopause is not a disease to be treated. Having said that, it can prove disturbing for some women who might need medical help to deal with typical symptoms like hot flashes, sleep disturbances, night sweats, skin disorders, and psychological disturbances like depressions and anxiety.
Physical changes occur with menopause and aging, but one can counter them or cope with them by healthy living and proper guidance. Gupte Hospital’s Menopause Clinic administers numerous therapies to help a woman manage her menopausal symptoms and stay healthy during this critical phase of her life. These therapies help prevent the long-term effects linked to estrogen deficiency such as heart disease and osteoporosis.
Our qualified doctors provide personal counseling to help women overcome their menopausal problems and find calmness and composure in life. We protect the identity of patients as a matter of policy and conduct physical examination only at the patient’s behest.
