    Frequently Asked Questions绝经

    什么是更年期的平均年龄?

    51,但它从不同的女人到女人。绝经前,一段时症状开始时间,但在此期间,你仍然有期限,可以在30年代中期开始。女性只有一小部分经过更年期提前,这是40岁之前考虑。

    Can you get pregnant after menopause?

    当你真正是绝经你的月经已经停止,不中断了整整12个月,你不再肥沃,不能怀孕。But don’t throw caution (or a condom) to the wind if you’re in perimenopause (you have menopausal symptoms but still get a period, even if only sporadically): At this point, your reproductive hormones and functional eggs are declining, but it is still possible to get pregnant.

    Does menopause cause weight gain?

    As we age, our metabolism slows down, and we begin to lose muscle mass, so we need to consume fewer calories (but often don’t). The lower estrogen levels that are a part of menopause also cause our metabolism to get sluggish, so it’s a double whammy. Add in menopause’s typical sleep issues, and you may exercise less and snack more. No matter what the cause, the fix is familiar: Eat fewer calories, avoid sugar and simply carbohydrates that quickly convert to sugar, and exercise as regularly as you can.

    My periods are now irregular—sometimes I skip a month or even two. Am I in menopause?

    还没有,但看起来你的方向是这样(除了一些医疗原因缺乏时期)。If you’re beginning to experience more time between your periods, lighter periods, or just a general “I’m not sure what in the heck is happening with my periods!”, you’re likely in perimenopause—think of it as the lead-up to menopause. It can last a few months or a few years. True menopause is defined as when your periods have stopped altogether for one year.
