Menopause is a normal human process that marks the end of a woman’s fertile years. This is a time that women should take up new challenges in life and live life to the fullest. Unfortunately, due to age-old superstitions and myths, menopause has gotten a bad reputation and is greeted with dread.
Women experience menopause between the ages of around 45 and 55. It causes changes in a woman’s body which may cause discomfort. According to gynaecological surgeons, common menopausal symptoms include:-
Bodily sensations and reactions that accompany menopause can be overwhelming and sometimes even embarrassing. This has given rise to a negative image associated with menopause and women have, for far too long, looked at menopause with dread. It is time to start celebrating the menopausal years.
It is true that some symptoms of menopause can be challenging. But advances in obstetrics and gynaecology offer many ways for women to cope with these physical, mental, and emotional changes. With a little help from their gynaecologist, women can start looking forward to the positive aspects of menopause.
Say goodbye to fussing with pads, worrying about stains and painful menstrual cramps.
It is a relief to not have to deal with the physical and emotional symptoms associated with PMS anymore.
It would be a welcome change to not have to endure debilitating menstrual migraines every month.
Menopause occurs in women around a time when their lives are changing in terms of home and work. Children have become independent and financial goals would have been achieved, so this is a time of liberation and freedom and to take stock of the future.
This is an empowering time in your life. It could be the best time to switch careers, perhaps turn a lifelong hobby into a business. Women have more financial control and confidence now to take on these challenges. If there’s something you’ve been putting on hold, there’s no time like the present to try it out.
Many women spend a lot of their time looking after other people, be it their partner, their children, or other members of the family. This is the time to take care of yourself and do the things that you have always dreamed of doing. It could be travelling to new places, learning an art, climbing a mountain, or running a marathon. Go after what you want.
Many women go through life comparing themselves, physically and mentally with other women and coming up short. All this fades as life evens out in the menopausal years. Postmenopausal women find great joy in making new friends and rediscovering old ones. It is a truly liberating experience to meet people on an even keel.
Many women find that their relationship with their family becomes better. Partners and children have matured too and it is easier to get along with and find common ground with spouses and children. The stress that accompanies bringing up your own children gives way to the joy of spending quality time with grandchildren.
By this time in their lives, women find the stress of financial burden decreasing as children earn for themselves and all the investments that they have made start paying dividends. It is easier to enjoy life and do all the things you want to do without having to worry about the financial implications.
Throughout life, women often prioritize the health of their family over their own. Now, it’s time to focus on your health. Taking care of yourself will ensure that you grow into your twilight years healthier and with fewer health problems.
