What Is Menopause?
Menopause marks a period of transition in a woman's life. While this can be an exciting time, the symptoms of menopause can take a toll on your comfort and quality of life. At WellHealth Medical Associates, our women's health services include treatments for managing menopause symptoms so you can settle into this new stage of life as comfortably as possible. If you're currently undergoing "the change" of menopause or have noticed a change in your menstrual pattern, we invite you to schedule a women's wellness exam and learn more about the menopause treatments we offer at our offices in Rochester Hills and Belleville, MI.
How Do You Provide Treatment for Menopause Symptoms?
During your consultation, we'll perform a thorough health assessment, discuss the symptoms you're experiencing, and go over your treatment options. Many of the symptoms of menopause are related to hormonal imbalances as your body slows its production of estrogen and progesterone. To address this, we might recommend hormone replacement therapy to help bring your body back into balance. We'll also discuss nutritional supplements to consider and offer guidance on diet and lifestyle changes to keep you fit and healthy. Throughout your treatment plan, we'll schedule regular follow-up appointments and exams so our staff can monitor changes in your health and adjust your treatment as needed.
What Are the Signs and Symptoms of Menopause?
Menopause usually doesn't occur until around age 50, though it can happen earlier or later for some women. The time when your body starts to transition into menopause is called perimenopause and is usually marked by irregular menstrual activity (like shorter or longer cycles). Symptoms that indicate you're experiencing menopause or perimenopause include:
- Sudden warmth and/or sweating in the upper body (hot flashes)
- Mood swings
- Difficulty sleeping
- Vaginal dryness
- Changes in libido
- Bone loss
If you're experiencing any of the above symptoms or have noticed that your periods are different than normal (for instance, if your flow is lighter or heavier or the time between menstruation becomes longer or shorter), you should schedule a consultation and wellness exam at WellHealth Medical Associates.
