What does perimenopause mean?

Perimenopause refers to the period before and after menopause when a woman's ovarian function declines.

Perimenopause is a series of uncomfortable symptoms caused by fluctuations or decreases in sex hormones before and after menopause. The menopausal process is an inevitable process in every woman's life. With age, ovarian function will fail physiologically. However, a small number of women undergo iatrogenic surgery such as oophorectomy or radiotherapy and chemotherapy due to diseases such as bilateral ovarian tumors, leading to ovarian failure. This phenomenon will manifest as irregular menstrual cycles, long menstrual duration, and symptoms such as hot flashes, sweating, headaches, and insomnia. You can take drugs such as oryzanol tablets, diazepam tablets, and estradiol valerate tablets according to the doctor's advice to improve it. The drug dosage must not be increased or decreased without permission, otherwise it will affect the recovery of the disease.

In daily life, you should also maintain a regular schedule, get enough sleep, avoid staying up late, relax, avoid excessive psychological pressure, eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, such as apples, tomatoes, carrots, etc., and participate in more outdoor sports, such as running, slow walking, yoga, etc., to improve your body's immunity. If you have other discomfort symptoms during treatment, you should go to the hospital's gynecology department.
