The "optimal menopause" age for women is announced, and it is not 55. Doctors: The closer to this age, the better

Aunt Li, who is nearly 50 years old, has been upset recently, with big mood swings, and has trouble sleeping at night. After going to the hospital for a checkup, it turned out that she had entered menopause. Hearing this news, Aunt Li looked worried: "Am I old?" I smiled and comforted her: "Aunt Li, menopause is a natural process that every woman has to go through. It is a milestone in life, but there is no need to worry too much." Then, I changed the subject, "But do you know? Female friends are all concerned about a question - what is the best age for menopause?" I blinked, kept it a secret, and then revealed the answer:

“In fact, there is no fixed number for the best age for menopause, but scientific research has found that it is around 49 years old.

Often the closer to this age the better.

This age group is like a warm reminder from nature to us women, telling us that our bodies are entering a new stage.

Being too early or too late is not good, just like attending a party, if you are late or leave early, you will miss the fun. "

Now, let me give you some scientific knowledge and answer your confusion!

Confusion 1: Is it bad to have menopause too early or too late?

Menopause is the cessation of menstruation in women, which usually occurs between the ages of 45 and 55.

Both early menopause (earlier than age 45) and late menopause (later than age 55) may have adverse effects on women's health.

Early menopause can cause dramatic changes in hormone levels in a woman's body, particularly a decrease in estrogen, which can cause a range of symptoms, such as hot flashes, night sweats, sleep problems, and mood swings.

In the long term, estrogen deficiency may also lead to an increased risk of cardiovascular disease, osteoporosis, and cognitive decline.

Late menopause may mean that women experience a longer period of estrogen exposure before menopause, which may increase the risk of certain cancers, especially breast and endometrial cancer.

Additionally, late menopause may result in similar symptoms, such as hot flashes and night sweats, which may negatively impact quality of life.

Therefore, whether menopause is too early or too late, it may have adverse effects on women's health and quality of life.

If you have any concerns about your menopausal status, it is recommended to consult a doctor for a personalized assessment and advice.

Confusion 2: Do women lose their sexual desire after menopause?

When women go through menopause, it doesn't mean their sexual desire disappears completely.

After menopause, the estrogen level in women's bodies decreases, which may cause vaginal dryness and pain during sexual intercourse, which may affect the comfort and satisfaction of sexual life.

However, this does not mean that women lose their sexual desire or ability.

In fact, some women may experience an increase in sexual desire after menopause because they are no longer concerned about the risk of pregnancy, and the relative increase in androgen levels during menopause may also lead to an increase in sexual desire.

To cope with the loss of libido that may occur after menopause, women can take a variety of measures, including lifestyle adjustments, hormone replacement therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and nutritional supplements.

For example, using lubricants can help improve vaginal dryness, while taking an appropriate amount of estrogen can help restore vaginal moisturization.

In short, menopause is not the end of women's sexual life, but a process in which sexual life and sexual desire can be maintained through appropriate medical intervention and lifestyle adjustments.

Confusion 3: Does menopause mean aging for women?

Menopause does not mean that women immediately enter the aging stage.

Menopause usually occurs after age 45. As we age, ovarian function gradually declines and estrogen secretion decreases, which can lead to a series of physical changes such as hot flashes, sleep problems and mood swings.

However, these changes are not equivalent to aging, as aging is a complex biological process influenced by multiple factors, including genetics, lifestyle, environment, etc.

In fact, with proper body maintenance and lifestyle adjustments, women can stay active and healthy even after menopause.

For example, proper exercise, a healthy diet, adequate sleep and active social activities all play a positive role in delaying aging.

In addition, menopause does not mean that all estrogen levels will drop sharply. Some women may still have a small amount of menstruation for a long time after menopause. In general, menopause is a sign of physiological changes in women, but it is not the only or decisive factor in aging.

With healthy lifestyle habits and appropriate medical interventions, women can continue to maintain good health after menopause.

Finally, I said to Aunt Li: "If you have any doubts about when to say goodbye to this party, remember to come to me. I will give you the most thoughtful advice and ensure that you can dance beautifully and walk gracefully at this turning point!" After hearing this, Aunt Li's face was relieved a lot, and she left the clinic with a smile and confidence. This is life, there is always a new chapter waiting for us to open, and health is our most beautiful makeup. Let us welcome every change gracefully and live out our true selves!
