Examination items and hazards of menopause

What are the examination methods for menopause? It is necessary for patients to grasp this point. Only by mastering the examination methods for menopause can we help everyone correctly diagnose this disease and then help everyone actively treat it. Next, we will give a detailed interpretation of the examination methods for menopause.

The simplest way to monitor changes in the genitals of postmenopausal women is to use the vaginal atrophy index, which can easily evaluate the degree of estrogen deficiency and can also be used to evaluate the response of women's genitals to estrogen replacement therapy. In addition to improving local conditions, estrogen also has the effect of increasing sexual interest and sexual satisfaction (especially when there is previous pain during intercourse), which improves women's sexual function overall.

Due to ovarian atrophy, estrogen and progesterone levels continue to decline. For postmenopausal women in their natural state, their estrogen is no longer produced by the ovaries, but is converted from androgens in the periphery, and androgens are produced by the stromal cells (not follicles) of the ovaries and the adrenal glands. As you can imagine, the estrogen level in the body is much lower than before menopause.

Regarding the examination methods for menopause, everyone must actively go to a professional hospital for diagnosis. Only in a professional hospital can everyone's safety and health be guaranteed to the greatest extent.
