1. What is the age of menopause?
Generally speaking, the natural menopause age of women varies from person to person, which is related to living environment, nutrition, personal health and other factors. According to statistics, the average natural menopause age of women is about 45 to 55 years old.
2. What factors determine the menopausal age of women?
Malnutrition leads to menopause
Long-term malnutrition in women, or systemic malnutrition caused by some wasting diseases, leads to the synthesis of gonadotropin-releasing hormone and growth hormone in hypothalamus and honey, thus inhibiting gonadotropin, hypogonadism and leading to menopause.
3. Long-term smoking leads to early menopause.
Benzopyrene in cigarettes can easily accelerate oocyte death, aromatic hydrocarbons in smoke can accelerate oocyte aging, and nicotine in cigarettes can affect ovarian blood supply, leading to premature ovarian failure, thus causing menopause.
4. The relationship between menopause and disease factors.
Consumptive diseases such as tuberculosis and liver disease, endocrine diseases, tumors and mumps complicated with oophoritis can all cause ovarian dysfunction, and endocrine abnormalities such as adrenal cortex, thyroid gland and pituitary gland lead to early menopause. In addition, radiotherapy, chemotherapy and some autoimmune diseases can also lead to premature ovarian failure and menopause.
5. The time of menopause is related to the reproductive status.
The older the first pregnancy, the earlier menopause, the fewer the number of pregnancies and the earlier menopause. This is because the older the first pregnancy, the less the number of pregnancies, which leads to the increase of ovulation times and the earlier menopause. Furthermore, women's ovulation will be inhibited during lactation. The longer breastfeeding time, the fewer ovulation times and the later menopause time. Conversely, the shorter the breastfeeding time, the earlier the menopause time.
6. Mental factors affect menopausal age.
Generally speaking, menopausal age is also related to women's psychological factors. The menopausal age of women with harmonious husband-wife relationship and harmonious sexual life is relatively late, while women with excessive daily stress, overwork and long-term depression and anxiety are prone to menopause earlier.
7. The number of oocytes decreased.
The number of oocytes is the most important factor to determine the menopause age of women. When a person is born, there are about one million oocytes in each person's ovary. After birth, the number of oocytes continues to decrease. When the number of oocytes decreases to a critical level, women will go through menopause.
8. What are the hazards of advancing or postponing female menopause?
If women's menopause before the age of 40 is called "early menopause" and after the age of 55 is called "late menopause", then it is not good for women's health to be too early or too late.
9, the danger of early menopause
Premature menopause tends to increase the risk of osteoporosis and cardiovascular disease. The decline of ovarian function leads to the early menopause, the decline of ovarian secretion, and the loss of estrogen protection for women, which will lead to accelerated bone loss and abnormal changes in lipid metabolism, and eventually lead to osteoporosis or cardiovascular diseases.
10, never experience late injury.
Too late menopause will lead to an increased risk of cancer. Women with early menarche and late menopause are affected by estrogen for too long, which is easy to induce estrogen-related tumors, such as breast cancer and endometrial cancer.
