Menstrual disorders can be said to be a problem that many young women encounter, but for older women, the concern is not menstrual irregularities, but whether amenorrhea is normal. At what age is amenorrhea considered normal for older women in general?
At what age is amenorrhea considered normal
Under normal circumstances, the age of amenorrhea for women of a certain age should be between 45-55 years old. However, many women have already discovered amenorrhea before the age of 45, which is an abnormal manifestation. So, what exactly is causing premature amenorrhea?
What is premature amenorrhea
Women with premature amenorrhea should be analyzed from the following three aspects:
1. The first thing to consider is the factors of the disease. When suffering from congenital azoospermia, premature ovarian failure, ovarian dysplasia and other reproductive organ diseases, it will directly affect the normal functioning of the ovaries, making it impossible for women to secrete estrogen and progesterone normally. The endometrium will no longer be stimulated by estrogen for periodic changes, and there will also be symptoms of no menstrual period. In addition, symptoms such as anemia and obesity in women can also affect their physical health to a certain extent, and may trigger premature amenorrhea.
2. Irregular lifestyle. If women persist in dieting for a long time to lose weight, excessive dieting can cause the body to lose nutrients, leading to an inability to maintain hormonal balance and triggering severe symptoms of endocrine disorders. This can affect the production of luteinizing hormone in the hypothalamus and lead to premature amenorrhea. Moreover, some women tend to stay up late frequently and may also experience premature amenorrhea.
3. Poor mental state. Women are subjected to long-term pressure from work and life, and their mental state remains tense and suppressed. Over time, a series of menstrual balance axes such as the ovarian function axis, pituitary gland, as well as the pituitary gland and nervous system of the brain are disrupted, leading to abnormal functional operation and premature amenorrhea.
For the sake of their own health, once they discover that the timing of amenorrhea is not right, women should promptly go to the hospital for a comprehensive examination and inform the doctor of their actual situation, so that the doctor can make a more accurate judgment.
