A woman is inherently unique. So different in nature processes occur in her body that no other creature could cope with all this. This article will discuss the so-called women's autumn. We will talk in detail about what is the climax state of a woman.
Basic concept
At the very beginning, we will determine the concepts in order to fully understand what is at stake. So what is menopause? This is a special condition of a woman caused by a significant change in her hormonal background. It is worth saying that all these processes are genetically programmed, it is impossible to change the course of their development today.
What happens to the body
So, the climax state of a woman. What is happening in the body of the fair sex at this time? This is a special period when a woman's reproductive system gradually begins to fade, and ovarian function weakens. At the same time, sex hormones in the body become less and less, menstruation begins to go irregularly. And after the last menstruation, a woman will never be able to get pregnant. It is also worth mentioning that a decrease in the amount of sex hormones (estrogen, FSH) negatively affects not only the reproductive system, but also the metabolism, bone and nervous systems, as well as blood circulation.
Phases
Generally speaking, without going into details, the woman’s climax is a transitional stage of the lady from the reproductive part of life to old age. In this case, scientists distinguish several phases of this state:
- Preparing the body for menopause (premenopause). It occurs around the age of 40, when ovarian function gradually begins to fade. This period can last from 2 to 10 years.
- The onset of menopause. This is the time when estrogens almost completely cease to be produced. This period is commonly called the menopause. It lasts about 1 year. Monthly menopause at first goes irregularly, the cycle goes wrong. And only gradually the discharge disappears completely.
- Postmenopause. A year later comes the field of complete cessation of spotting from the vagina. It lasts from 3 to 15 years. It all depends on the speed of adjustment of the lady's body and its adaptation to new conditions.
Time frame
We further consider the climax state of a woman. The age of the ladies, when all this happens, is what else is important to say. So, this condition does not have a clearly limited time frame. Decrease in the reproductive activity of the fair sex begins with the process of minimizing fertility. It happens at about 35 years old. Gradually, the function of the ovaries fades away, and on average at the age of 50 years (plus or minus 5 years), the lady begins a menopause.
What is the unpredictable climax state of a woman? The age of the fair sex can be much lower than this figure. So, there is the concept of early menopause, when the extinction of the reproductive system occurs quite early (even at the age of 35). However, this requires special reasons. Late menopause can occur after the 60 years of age of the lady. This contributes to an active lifestyle, as well as late pregnancy.
First signs
How is the climax of a woman determined? What are the first bells to indicate that the lady is at such an important stage of hormonal adjustment?
- Vascular Disorders This is a short-term vasodilation, when a woman's blood rushes to the upper half of the body and head. At the same time, the neck, face, and chest can redden sharply. Also, sometimes there is an increase in temperature (for a short period).
- Neuropsychic disorders. Most often found in ladies with an unstable psyche, as well as in women who are very afraid of this period.
Menopause
During the first three years from the onset of menopause, a lady may experience the following symptoms:
- Urogenital disorders. This is urinary incontinence, vaginal dryness, pain during intercourse, frequent urination, various discharge, itching.
- Fragile nails, hair loss, dryness and wrinkling of the skin may be observed.
Other symptoms (which appear during a pathological menopause, i.e., approximately five years after the onset of menopause):
- Neuropathology. Visual and hearing impairment, memory impairment, decreased learning ability.
- Exchange disorders. The occurrence of diseases such as arterial hypertension or diabetes mellitus.
- Musculoskeletal problems. This may be muscular dystrophy, osteoporosis, etc.
It is important to say that the condition with menopause in women can be different. So, some ladies calmly survive this period, especially without encountering external manifestations (such as hot flashes, fever, sweating). Other women suffer from many related problems. How can the symptoms of menopause be relieved?
Feeling tired, insomnia
How to alleviate the condition with menopause, if the lady is worried about fatigue during the day, and insomnia at night? In this case, resorting to medications is not worth it. If a woman already in the morning does not feel strength and energy, it is necessary to help the body cheer up. In this case, adaptogens (special herbal medicines that are designed to increase tonus and fight against a breakdown) can help or a folk remedy - ginseng infusion. If a lady is disturbed by insomnia, before going to bed, it is best to drink tea from soothing herbs. It can be mint, lemon balm, valerian root and hop cones.
Headache
Headaches with menopause are also often worried. To cope with them, at first it is better not to resort to taking medications (so as not to cause addiction to them). In this case, it’s good to try to relieve the pain in the following way:
- The neck and chest should be wrapped in a warm scarf.
- Put a towel soaked in cold water on your forehead.
Such a contrast of heat and cold perfectly relieves spasm, and the headache goes away.
Increased sweating
The lady can be alarmed by fever with menopause, increased sweating. How then can you help yourself? It is necessary to take a shower more often and carry out hygiene procedures. And you can also use an excellent perspiration folk remedy. It is made from sage. To do this, two tablespoons of the indicated ingredient should be poured with a glass of boiling water, all insisted for about 30-40 minutes. Take such a remedy 3 times a day for a third of a glass.
The tides
Very many women are disturbed by the tides during menopause. What it is? This is a woman’s condition, when the body temperature rises for a certain time (on average for a couple of minutes), dizziness may be felt due to a sharp rush of blood to the head and upper body. This condition most often disturbs ladies in the morning and in the evening. Tides will occur for about one year at different intervals (however, the phenomenon can be delayed for a longer period). What to do to alleviate the condition?
- If the lady feels the approach of the tide, we must sit comfortably, and in this position wait it out.
- Completely abandon hot baths, steam rooms and saunas, that is, from any overheating (it stimulates fever with menopause).
- You need to walk as much as possible, try to train your body.
- You should always have a bottle of water on hand. A pair of sips inward and a few drops of water on the face will significantly facilitate the condition of the woman.
- Separately, you have to deal with sweating in the above way.
Involuntary urination
Also, a woman during menopause may suffer from urinary incontinence and involuntary urination. What should be done to get rid of such a problem yourself? Morning exercises will be useful. Particular attention should be paid to the swing of the press. You can also train the muscles of the vagina, periodically straining and relaxing them.
Vaginal dryness
Another fairly common symptom of menopause in women is vaginal dryness. To cope with this problem, you need to locally introduce such a hormone as estrogen into the body. You can do this with hormonal ointments or candles. They should only be prescribed by a doctor. It can be, for example, Ovestin gel.
Bone fractures, osteoporosis
During the climacteric state, the lady's bone density decreases significantly (the whole fault is a decrease in the protein and calcium levels in the body, as well as certain hormones). Therefore, during this period, a woman should especially take care of herself. And in order to avoid such a problem, you just need to eat wisely and lead the right lifestyle.
Heart diseases
We further consider the topic: "Climax state of a woman." Symptoms, treatment - all the information will be useful to ladies who are approaching this phase or have already entered it. At this time, representatives of the fair sex often experience various kinds of cardiovascular diseases. Again, this is due to a decrease in the production of such a hormone as estrogen. At risk are women whose menopause started early, as well as those who smoke, are overweight or excess cholesterol in the blood, have diabetes, or lead a sedentary lifestyle.
About breast
Women may be interested in the question of whether the breast will somehow change with menopause. So, external transformations will definitely not happen. But there is a high probability that the lady at this time will feel pain in the mammary gland. Everything happens, again, due to the lack of hormones that directly affect the work of the female breast. How can you help yourself in such a situation?
- You need to choose the right bra. The lady's chest at this time should not hold down anything. It is best to abandon push-up bras.
- Ice packs help cope with pain.
- Massage is also recommended. It can even be done on its own.
