Elderly Women !!
Growing Older, Growing Wiser
While all women will
experience menopause, each will experience it in her own unique
way. For many women the transition is an easy one. For others,
menopause comes with some decidedly unpleasant side effects.
Regardless of ease or difficulty during menopause, however, the
risks of long term health problems (such as heart disease and
osteoporosis) increase post-menopause.
Your Doctor's Role:
It’s your doctor’s
task to help you make a smooth transition into menopause and
beyond. She can:
-
Let you know what physical and
emotional changes to expect.
-
Help you to explore all your
options to deal with minor or complex issues.
-
Work
with you to develop an individual strategy, depending on your
symptoms and your preferences.
Many women find
menopausal and post-menopausal life to be liberating. No monthly
bloating, cramping, tampons or pads. No pregnancy concerns. Don't
be afraid of this stage of your life. Both short and long term
conditions can be managed with the help of your doctor.
You can email
your queries to Dr. Kiran Mehndiratta or meet her in person at her
Clinic. |
