Menopause at 45 means faster aging than menopause at 55? This article refutes rumors and tells the truth

As women age, their bodies also gradually age, and unlike men, women experience a marked "menopause" stage due to the gradual decline of ovarian function, and eventually menstruation occurs. After disappearing and entering the menopause, many female friends wonder if the earlier the menopause occurs, the earlier the ovarian function ages, and the faster the body ages? For example, menopause at the age of 45 and menopause at the age of 55. Is it true that people who are menopausal at the age of 45 will age faster?

The decline of ovarian function leads to a decrease in the level of estrogen in women. This change in hormone level will bring about physical, psychological and other physiological changes for women. Usually women will enter between the ages of 45 and 55. During menopause, menstrual flow gradually decreases, and eventually menopause occurs. As for this stage, from the perspective of changes in women's ovarian function, it is true that if menopause at the age of 45, compared with menopause at the age of 55, the changes in ovarian function and aging are: It appeared earlier, but if it is based on this, it is judged that the menopause is too early, which means that the faster the body ages, it is not scientific and comprehensive enough.

For such a question, I would like to first discuss with you a question, what exactly is "aging"? Is it the aging of the face and the increase in wrinkles, or is it a psychological change, is it aging that loses more and more vitality, or is aging when the various organs of the body begin to fail? It is believed that in different people's minds, the definition of aging will be different, but in a comprehensive analysis, the so-called aging is a kind of physiological state that integrates various physical and psychological conditions of the body, and only occurs during menopause. To judge sooner or later, of course, is not accurate enough.

Usually, if the menopause occurs between the ages of 45 and 55, as long as it does not appear before the age of 40, it is normal, and the appearance of menopause a few years earlier or later does not represent the overall aging of the human body.

For example, if a 45-year-old postmenopausal female friend pays more attention to physical health maintenance, actively do a good job of physical conditioning during menopause, and pay more attention to skin maintenance, compared with 55-year-old menopausal friends, during the menopause process There is no active maintenance of physical health, and no active intervention and control of various possible chronic metabolic problems, osteoporosis and other problems. At the same time, I usually do not pay attention to skin care and conditioning for a long time. Compare these two friends Whether it is from the external skin appearance or internal physical health, can it be said that this 45-year-old postmenopausal friend will be more “aged” than a 55-year-old postmenopausal friend? fast?

Therefore, if we want to age slowly, we should not compare with others, but should compare with others. Our genetics and personal physique determine each person's physical health. The time of menopause appears sooner or later, and the overall aging speed of the body. , will be different. Therefore, if we want to slow down our aging speed, we should start from ourselves and be responsible for our own health. Especially in the menopause stage, we must pay special attention to the physiological changes in all aspects of the body, and actively do a good job in it. The prevention of three highs, the prevention of osteoporosis, the prevention of cardiovascular disease, the prevention of genitourinary system diseases and other aspects of health conditioning and maintenance, if related diseases are found and need treatment or medication, they should also follow the doctor's advice and use reasonable It is necessary to maintain an optimistic and open-minded attitude psychologically. Having a young heart is also an important aspect of slowing down aging and maintaining youthful vitality in the body. If you can achieve the above aspects, Why bother with the question of early or late menopause?
