Does Menopause affect blood pressure?
2006-12-16 08:48:02 Yes. Blood pressure increases after menopause and so does the risk of high blood pressure. There has been some debate about whether these changes in blood pressure are truly due to menopause or are a consequence of age and weight gain. But after taking these factors into account, researchers have found that postmenopausal women are at higher risk of high blood pressure than are premenopausal women. This suggests that estrogen may play a protective role in blood pressure. Read more here More About: Press , Men , Menopause , Sure

Menopause and depression
2006-12-01 08:13:10 As I was taking a psyco-social medical history of a 43-year-old woman, I asked ?What is your problem?? She replied, ?I can?t sleep at night. I can?t seem to remember anything. My muscles hurt and I feel as if I could cry any minute.?My first thought was that this woman was going through a depressive episode. In probing further, she also had symptoms of breast tenderness and hot flashes. In further assessment, she had no life-altering experiences that would lead me believe in external causation. When asked when she last had seen her physician of record, she replied, ?last year for a physical.? She was not on any medication, she took vitamins every day and exercised twice a week at a health club.Read more here More About: Depression , Press , Men , Sion , Menopause
