The symptoms of menopause vary for each woman and can last anywhere from a few weeks to several years. The most common symptoms experienced during menopause include:
These symptoms usually appear during the early stages of perimenopause, which is the period leading up to menopause when hormone levels begin to shift. For many women, these symptoms will last one to three years. During this time, hormones fluctuate greatly as the ovaries produce less estrogen. This can cause a wide range of uncomfortable physical and emotional changes. As hormone levels stabilize during post-menopause (the period after menopause), many women experience fewer or milder symptoms.
Some women may experience long-term or chronic symptoms from menopause such as musculoskeletal pain, sexual dysfunction, urinary incontinence, fatigue, insomnia, memory problems, and hair thinning/loss. These more severe symptoms can have a major impact on quality of life and should be addressed with your doctor so that you can find ways to manage them effectively.
In some cases, hormone replacement therapy (HRT) may be recommended to help relieve or reduce some of the worst symptoms associated with menopause. HRT can provide relief for hot flashes and night sweats as well as vaginal dryness but should not be undertaken without careful consideration of potential risks associated with this treatment option. If you are considering HRT it is always best to speak with your doctor about possible treatments as well as any risks associated with them.
