Menopausal period refers to the period during which a woman undergoes a transition from decreased gonadal function to complete loss. So do you know when women go through menopause? The following is an introduction about when women experience menopause, hoping to be helpful to everyone.
When does a woman menopause?
A new study shows that the menopausal age of women is closely related to their relatives, especially their mothers and sisters.
The researchers analyzed more than 2000 women aged 31 to 90. The results showed that if your mother or sisters was in menopause at the age of 45, you would be six times more likely to be in menopause at the age of 45. If you have a late menopause (54 years old or above), your mother is six times more likely to have a late menopause, while your sisters is two times more likely.
Researchers point out that genes have a significant impact on menopausal age, but lifestyle is also important, and women can change menopausal time through lifestyle.
Data shows that 51 years old is the average age for women to reach menopause, but there are also menopauses around 40 years old.
Time of female menopause
Experts point out that the age of menopause is influenced by many factors, and due to the gradual changes in gonadal function from maturity to decline, it is difficult to determine the age of female menopause.
However, as ovarian endocrine hormones decrease to a certain extent, women will experience menopause. Generally speaking, women experience menopausal changes before menopause, and after menopause, some menopausal symptoms may persist for a period of time. Therefore, it is difficult to accurately grasp the age of menopause in clinical practice, and can only be estimated from the age of menopause.
However, due to differences in region, climate, race, economy, nutrition, age at menarche, marriage and childbirth, and contraceptive methods, the menopausal age of each woman may vary slightly. In fact, 95% of women experience menopause around the age of 50, with rural women averaging 2 years earlier than urban women.
Why do women have menopause?
The main reason for menopause is the significant degradation of ovarian function, leading to hormonal disorders.
1. When the ovaries become smaller and no longer ovulate, the secretion of estrogen decreases, leading to ovarian degeneration and possibly leading to coronary heart disease, hypertension, cerebrovascular accidents, or other elderly mental illnesses.
2. Reduced stimulation of epithelial cells, smooth muscle, and connective tissue growth.
3. The autonomic nervous system is unstable. This is also the main reason for the hidden menopause before menopause.
