Most women experience a transitional period from childbearing to aging between the ages of 45 and 55. During this period, due to the gradual decline of ovarian function and insufficient secretion of estrogen, a series of discomfort symptoms and health risks can occur in the body. We generally refer to this period as menopause, and when a woman stops menstruation for more than 12 months, it can generally be confirmed that she has entered menopause.

The decrease of estrogen level in women during menopause will cause a series of vasomotor symptoms such as hot flashes, sweating, anxiety, irritability, and other emotional problems. In addition, there are other disease risks such as reproductive Urinary system infection, osteoporosis, chronic cardiovascular disease, and so on. We have talked a lot about these. Today we will talk about women after menopause, Several health precautions to pay attention to.

Although not all of them are applicable, generally speaking, the body of postmenopausal women gradually adapts and tolerates some related symptoms caused by a decrease in menopausal hormone levels, such as hot flashes, sweating, and skin ant sensation, which will gradually decrease or adapt. However, as age continues to increase, aging of the body is inevitable, and some related health issues still deserve further attention and adjustment.

Postmenopausal women should pay attention to cardiovascular health risks

Estrogen is an important hormone that protects women. In menopausal and postmenopausal women, the gradual decrease of estrogen is the main cause of metabolic disorders. Many women will find that during this period, their bodies are more likely to gain weight, and obesity is less easily controlled. Indicators such as blood pressure, blood lipids, and blood sugar are also gradually experiencing problems, which are health issues that postmenopausal women are more likely to encounter and face.

The three high blood pressure, hyperlipidemia and diabetes are all important risk factors that ultimately lead to cardiovascular disease risk. Therefore, it is recommended that women should pay attention to regular physical examination from the time they enter menopause, pay attention to blood pressure, blood lipid, blood sugar and other indicators, and start to actively control their life by controlling diet, strengthening exercise and other ways from the beginning of the rising trend.

If a friend really has a problem, he or she should not be unable to control and manage it because he or she has no feeling. The three high problems are chronic cardiovascular disease risks. If he or she is well controlled and adjusted, he or she can greatly reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease. If he or she does not control it, it will be too late to control once there are major cardiovascular and cerebrovascular problems such as myocardial infarction and cerebral infarction.

Prevention and control of cardiovascular disease risk in postmenopausal women, and finally summarize several key points:

• Maintain a healthy lifestyle
• Early detection of problems through regular physical examinations
• Early intervention to control the three highs
• Reasonable medication when needed

Pay attention to the risk of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women

Similarly, when women enter menopause, they may experience accelerated bone loss. If they do not pay attention to regulation and control, osteoporosis may occur. Osteoporosis may cause bone pain and also pose a risk of fracture. For postmenopausal women, the issue of osteoporosis is still worth paying attention to. It is not that bones become brittle as people age, but rather that there is no reasonable adjustment and control, leading to the problem of osteoporosis, which makes bones "brittle".

Similarly, osteoporosis should also be prevented early. Women entering menopause and postmenopausal stages should pay attention to supplementing calcium in their daily lives. If their diet cannot effectively and adequately supplement, they can choose reliable and appropriate calcium supplements. At the same time, it is also important to pay attention to supplementing vitamin D to promote calcium absorption. The recommended daily calcium supplement dose for postmenopausal women is 1000mg, The daily dose of vitamin D supplementation is 800IU. Balanced and healthy nutrition intake is the foundation, and if reasonable exercise and outdoor exposure to the sun can be strengthened, it is also an important lifestyle adjustment to enhance bone density and prevent osteoporosis.

For those who have confirmed osteoporosis and need to take medicine to control it, taking calcium and vitamin D supplements is not enough. Generally, bisphosphonate Bone resorption inhibitors are recommended to improve osteoporosis. These drugs can effectively inhibit bone resorption, reduce bone turnover rate, and improve osteoporosis. Generally, the taking period is about 3-5 years, but it should be noted that they have certain irritation to the stomach. In addition to bisphosphonates, female friends with osteoporosis can also choose estrogen receptor regulators, such as Raloxifene, lassoxifen, Calcitonin, parathyroid hormone and other drugs to control osteoporosis under the guidance of doctors.

Other health risks for women after menopause

In addition to cardiovascular risk and osteoporosis risk, postmenopausal women should also pay attention to various problems caused by reproductive Urinary system atrophy, pay more attention to avoid reproductive Urinary system infection and other risks, and reasonable control, if necessary, follow the doctor's advice to use drugs for conditioning and control, is a good choice.

In addition, even after menopause, women should pay attention to uterine and breast related examinations. Generally, women under 65 years old are recommended to undergo regular screening for cervical cancer, while those over 65 years old who are not at high risk and result in HPV negative can terminate cervical cancer examinations; Breast examination is recommended to be conducted regularly every 1-2 years.

Finally, I would like to emphasize the importance of psychological regulation. Whether it is menopause or postmenopausal, it is a necessary stage in life. When there are related discomfort symptoms, it is good to actively respond. This response also includes psychological regulation and response. When facing optimistic acceptance and fear, anxiety, and restlessness, the results and subjective feelings are often vastly different. Therefore, in order to ensure physical health, Firstly, it is important to maintain a healthy and positive psychological state. Facing life positively and optimistically at any time and age is an important aspect of ensuring physical health and reducing the risk of related diseases# Health Exploration Society # # Qingfeng Plan # # Heart Hero#
