Is it normal to have menopause before 40?

Menopause refers to the decline of ovarian function in women and the cessation of menstruation, which is more common in women aged 45 to 55. Menopause can be divided into natural menopause and artificial menopause. Natural menopause refers to the exhaustion of ovarian follicles, or the remaining follicles have lost their response to gonadotropins, the follicles no longer develop and secrete estrogen, and cannot stimulate the growth of the endometrium, leading to menopause. Artificial menopause refers to surgical removal of both ovaries or other methods to stop ovarian function, such as radiotherapy and chemotherapy.

Menstrual disorders: the most common and prominent manifestation of menopausal women. Menstruation is often delayed, even once every few months, and the menstrual flow gradually decreases. When estrogen becomes less and less and can no longer cause changes in the endometrium, menstruation stops, which is called menopause. Hot flashes: one of the main characteristics of menopause. Some women will have bouts of fever, blushing, sweating, dizziness, and palpitations during menopause due to the decrease in estrogen levels and blood calcium levels. The duration varies from one to two minutes or 12 to 15 minutes.

The body functions of women in menopause begin to decline, and even their nerves and spirits begin to deteriorate. Nervous and mental disorders: some women have obvious fluctuations in blood pressure, and may have emotional instability, irritability, personality changes, memory loss, etc. Cardiovascular and lipid metabolism disorders: coronary heart disease and diabetes may occur. Degeneration of the motor system: pain in the waist, back and limbs occurs, and some women develop frozen shoulder and cervical spondylosis.

Through the above introduction, I hope that female friends will have a correct understanding of menopause, especially when they reach menopause, the amount of menstrual blood gradually becomes less, which is a normal phenomenon. Patients should not worry too much. As long as they take good care of food, clothing, housing and transportation in daily life, of course psychological care is also indispensable, menopause will not have too much impact on the body.
