Menopausal Management

Almost all women experience symptoms at menopause. Most women find these symptoms manageable and choose not to have treatment. When symptoms are particularly severe or prolonged, there are a range of ways to manage them.

We help you with assessment and possible treatment.

Suppose you are under the age of 45 and have entered/suspect that you have entered menopause. In that case, we recommend you book an appointment to arrange a thorough assessment through our Gynecologist specialist.

Symptoms

Most women experience symptoms at menopause. Usually, these are manageable but some women experience troublesome symptoms that are severe or persist for many years.
Menopausal symptoms include hot flushes and night sweats (called vasomotor symptoms) and vaginal dryness.
Sleep disturbance from night sweats can also impact on mood and daytime function.
Around the age of menopause, other symptoms such as depression and changes in sex drive are common but it is not known whether these are directly due to menopause.
Some women find menopause a positive experience and are relieved that they no longer have to deal with menstrual periods and fertility.

Menopause is a natural event for women.

In the lead-up to menopause, your ovaries may not produce an egg each month. This can lead to changes in the hormones circulating in your body. Specifically, oestrogen levels may be increased and progesterone levels may be lower. After menopause, oestrogen levels also fall considerably. Women are considered ‘postmenopausal’ one year after their final menstrual period. Menopause usually occurs naturally at around age 50 but may happen earlier due to chemotherapy, radiation treatment or surgery.
