Menopause is a natural biological process that marks the end of a woman's reproductive years. It typically occurs between the ages of 45 and 55, but can happen earlier or later. During menopause, a woman's body experiences a decrease in the production of estrogen and progesterone, which can cause a variety of symptoms, including hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, and sleep disturbances.
Counseling for menopause may include discussing lifestyle changes that can help alleviate symptoms, such as maintaining a healthy diet and exercise routine, practicing stress-management techniques, and avoiding triggers that can worsen hot flashes (such as alcohol and caffeine).
Treatment options for menopause symptoms include hormone replacement therapy (HRT), which replaces the decreased hormones in the body, and non-hormonal options such as vaginal moisturizers, low-dose antidepressants, and certain herbal supplements. Your doctor can help you determine the best course of treatment for your specific symptoms and needs.
