Menopause Treatment Specialist in Las Vegas, NV

Menopause is when a female’s menstrual cycle ends and is usually diagnosed when you have gone 12 full months without a menstrual period. Menopause usually occurs in your 40’s or 50’s, but the average age of women who go through menopause is 51.

Menopause is a natural process; however, the physical and emotional symptoms often disrupt your sleep, lower your energy, and negatively affect your emotional health, causing issues and disruption of your daily life.

Many women experience the following perimenopause signs and symptoms letting them know menopause is going to begin in the next few months or few years:

– Irregular periods
– Vaginal dryness
– Hot flashes
– Chills
– Night sweats
– Sleep issues
– Mood changes
– Weight gain
– Slower metabolism
– Thinning hair
– Dry skin

Skipping periods over several months and returning is common and often expected. Despite having irregular periods, pregnancy is still a possibility during this stage in your life.

Women often experience a variety of physical, mental, and emotional symptoms long before menopause begins. The transition often leads to many symptoms that will begin to interfere with their quality of life. Whole-body health is evaluated and how you care for your body during this time is vital, both to help manage any troubling symptoms and to help address any changes that may impact your heart, bone, and brain health.

When you start noticing the symptoms of perimenopause, it is best to start looking to consult a physician that specializes in menopause. These are some common symptoms you may experience as menopause approaches:

– Irregular periods
– Vaginal dryness
– Vaginal thinning
– Skin changes
– Fatigue
– Sleep disturbances
– Decreased libido
– Depression
– Anxiety
– Mood changes

Our board-certified physicians will evaluate your symptoms, obtain your medical history, and design a treatment plan that is right for you. Your treatment may include hormonal or non-hormonal therapies that can help improve your symptoms and therefore improve your quality of life. There is not a one-size-fits-all treatment for menopause, and it is important to be evaluated by your physician to determine the right regimen for your symptoms. The Menopause Society recommends that in the right candidate, menopausal hormone therapy be initiated for the treatment of vasomotor symptoms (hot flashes) within 10 years of the last menstrual period and prior to the age of 60. Our gynecologists are members of The Menopause Society and only recommend safe, FDA-approved, evidence-based treatment.
