Menopause marks the end of menstruation and reproductive ability, occurring when the ovaries cease functioning. In Thai women, it's typically diagnosed after 12 consecutive months without a period, usually around the age of 48.
Symptoms of Menopause Include:
- Hot flashes
- Night sweats
- Insomnia
- Urinary frequency or incontinence
- Migraine headaches
- Joint and bone pain
- Heart palpitations
- Reduced sexual response
Treatment for Menopausal Symptoms:
Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) is considered the gold standard treatment, provided there are no contraindications like a family history of breast cancer. Doctors will assess each case individually for the suitability of HRT, as needed and appropriate.
