What are the items in menopause examination?

I believe that more and more people understand the importance of physical examinations and will have regular physical examinations, which is of great significance for maintaining health. However, many people will ask, do you need to have regular physical examinations when you are about to go through menopause? In response to this question, let's take a closer look at the physical examination items for women during menopause.

Many female friends think that they are about to go through menopause and no longer need to undergo regular checkups. In fact, women in menopause still need to undergo regular physical examinations, one of which is bone density examination. Let's see what experts have to say.

Experts say that, relatively speaking, if young women have to "save" items during their annual routine health check-ups and common disease screenings, they can consider their own situation and choose whether to undergo blood lipid tests, gout tests, abdominal B-ultrasound tests, etc.; and as women age, they should also add femoral and lumbar bone density, routine stool tests, and digestive tests to the physical examination items, which will help understand liver and kidney function and related diseases, metabolic diseases, immune diseases, tumors, endocrine hormone levels, osteoporosis levels, etc.

Especially for women over 45 years old and entering menopause, bone density examination should be included in the examination, because they are at high risk of osteoporosis. As the estrogen level in the body gradually decreases, they progress with the disease faster than men.

Young women are less likely to have dyslipidemia, so blood lipid testing can be temporarily omitted; gout testing is related to age, diet, etc. If a woman does not look fat, likes vegetables and fruits, and eats less meat, uric acid does not necessarily have to be included in the test.
