Effects
What are the effects of premature menopause?
In Early or Premature Menopause: What Are the Effects of Early or Premature Menopause? the Office on Women’s Health, United States Department of Health and Human Services, Womenshealth.gov elaborate on:
“Women who go through menopause early may have symptoms or health problems similar to those of regular menopause.
But some women with early or premature menopause may also have:
- Higher risk of serious health problems, such as heart disease and osteoporosis, since women will live longer without the health benefits of higher estrogen levels. Talk to your health care provider about steps to lower your risk for these health problems
- More severe menopause symptoms. Talk to your health care provider about treatments to help with symptoms if they affect your daily life
- Sadness or depression over the early loss of fertility or the change in their bodies. Talk to your health care provider if you have symptoms of depression, including less energy or a lack of interest in things you once enjoyed that lasts longer than a few weeks. They can recommend specialists to help you understand and cope with your feelings. Your health care provider can also discuss options, such as adoption or donor egg programs, if you want to have children”.
