How to treat postmenopausal neurological syndrome

The treatment of postmenopausal neurological syndrome requires a combination of medication, psychological adjustment, and lifestyle intervention to alleviate symptoms and improve quality of life. Depending on the patient's specific symptoms, hormone replacement therapy, psychological support, and diet and exercise adjustments can be selected.

Hormone replacement therapy is a common first-line method, which relieves symptoms such as hot flashes, sweating, and mood swings by supplementing estrogen and progesterone. Drugs such as estrogen ointments or patches, combined oral estrogen progesterone preparations, etc., need to be used under the guidance of a doctor, and their suitability should be determined after assessing the risk of breast cancer and cardiovascular disease. In addition, for patients with impaired neurological function such as anxiety and depression, anti-anxiety drugs such as paroxetine, alprazolam, and sleep aids such as melatonin can have a good effect. Some patients may need individualized psychotherapy, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, to alleviate mood swings or insomnia problems, and experts will customize the plan according to the specific manifestations.

Lifestyle adjustments are also very important. Regular exercise such as yoga and moderate walking can enhance nerve regulation. In terms of diet, you can choose soy products and nuts rich in phytoestrogens, as well as whole grain foods rich in B vitamins to maintain stable nerve function. Maintaining regular physical examinations, monitoring related chronic disease indicators, and traditional Chinese medicine conditioning (such as acupuncture, herbal medicine) are also good auxiliary options. If the symptoms are severe and the ability to live is limited, you should seek medical attention in time for further evaluation and in-depth intervention.
