DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MENOPAUSE AND MENARCHE

 Many people are mistaking menopause and menarche, which make them very difficult to differentiate so now let discuss. 

MENOPAUSE 
    A natural decline in reproductive hormone when a woman reaches her 40s or 50s. Menopause is signalled by 12months since last menstruation. 
   Usually menopause is self diagnosable with common symptoms such as:

1. hot flashes
2. Vaginal dryness 
3. Vagina become shorter 
4. Anxiety and depression 
5. Sleep disturbance. 
     Menopause is a naturally process with that focus on symptomics relief. Vaginal dryness is treated with topical lubricant or estrogen. Also medication can reduce hot flashes severity and frequency effects e.g oral hormone therapy is used. 

STAGES OF MENOPAUSE 

1.perimenopause: is the time leading up to menopause which you experience small and lighty changes.         

2. Menopause : occur when you're stopped producing the hormone that cause your menstrual period. Of to 12monrh after last period. 

3. Postmenopause :is the time after you've been without a menstrual period for 12mnth. During the stage, menopausal symptoms such as, hot flashes get milder or go away. People in post menopause are at risk of heart disease and osteoporosis. Medication and healthy lifestyle change may reduce the risk of these conditions. 
         Some hormonal changes occurs after menopause, your ovaries are making very little or both estrogen and progesterone by the time you're in postmenopause some people still experiencing side effect from this low hormone level. 

  GENERAL SYMPTOMS 
1 . Hot flashes 

2.vaginal dryness 

3.sexual discomfort 

4. Depression 

5. Change in sex drive

6. Dry skin

7. Weight change 

8. Hair loss

9. Urinary incontinence 

10. Unexpected tears 

11. Mental instability 

12. Vagina become shorter  

  MOST SEVERE SYMPTOMS 
1.trouble sleeping 

2.night sweat 

3. Irritability 
         Many menopausal woman experience a loss of sexual desire and this can be the result of multi hormonal problems related to estrogen as well as androgen. So menopausal woman need support and affection from her partner so as to reduce risk of menopause. 

          MENARCHE  
menarche is the first menstrual cycle or menstrual bleeding in female human, from both social and medical perspectives, it's often considered the central event of female puberty and this signal the possibility of fertility. Girls experience menarche at different ages
