Dr.
Kobren has guided thousand of patients through hormone
deficiency and menopause.
Menopause is the permanent end of menstruation and fertility,
defined as occurring 12 months after your last menstrual
period.
Menopause is a natural biological process, not a medical
illness. Even so, the physical and emotional symptoms of
menopause can disrupt your sleep, sap your energy and — at
least indirectly — trigger feelings of sadness and loss.
Hormonal changes cause the physical symptoms of menopause,
but mistaken beliefs about the menopausal transition are
partly to blame for the emotional ones. First, menopause
doesn't mean the end is near — you've still got as much as
half your life to go. Second, menopause will not snuff out
your femininity and sexuality. In fact, you may be one of
the many women who find it liberating to stop worrying about
pregnancy and periods.
Most important, even though menopause is not an illness,
you shouldn't hesitate to get treatment if you're having
severe symptoms. Many treatments are available, from lifestyle
adjustments to hormone therapy.
