Menopause is the end of your menstrual cycle, which happens after you haven’t had a period for 12 months. It generally occurs between the ages of mid-forties and early-fifties, and it is a transforming period for women. Menopause is a difficult period for women, and it is generally accompanied with a slew of hormonal changes. Changes in the levels of the female hormones oestrogen and progesterone cause a number of physical and emotional changes in women.

Any big life change during perimenopause (around menopause) can contribute to depression, therefore a woman must take care of her mental health at this time.

“It’s generally known that big life events, such as children leaving home, divorce, and so on, can trigger sadness around the time of menopause.” Women may have restless nights as a result of heat flashes, and sex may become resentful as a result of vaginal dryness, thus affecting your sexual life.

According to studies, having a negative attitude regarding menopause might make symptoms like mood swings and hot flashes worse. As a result, it is critical to retain a positive outlook on life throughout this time.

For some women, perimenopause might be challenging owing to a lack of strict schedule or harmful behaviours such as smoking, which can cause undesirable effects.

“Your mindset, as well as your lifestyle, has a significant influence on the symptoms you experience throughout menopause.” Smoking and a lack of exercise and a disciplined schedule, for example, are connected to greater hot flashes during menopause, as well as an increased risk of depression at any age. Mood swings (feeling angry, irritated, or easily disturbed) are another prevalent side effect of menopause.

“Major depression is an illness that results from a chemical imbalance in the brain, and it is characterized by a persistently gloomy mood as well as a loss of interest in typical activities and relationships.” Hormone fluctuations during menopause may be linked to this imbalance.
