Postmenopause is the stage of a woman's life that begins after menopause, once menstruation has stopped for good. The hormonal changes typical of this period influence various aspects of health.
Common symptoms: Hot flashes, vaginal dryness, changes in sleep or mood, and changes in bone health over time.
When to see a doctor? An evaluation is warranted in the case of vaginal bleeding after menopause or when symptoms affect quality of life.
Which specialist treats it? The gynecologist accompanies this stage and, depending on needs, the endocrinologist addresses the hormonal aspect and the gynecologic oncologist assesses findings that require study. Discussing your questions with a professional helps you go through this stage with greater well-being.
