Menopause Treatment in Indore: Feel Like Yourself Again

Help for perimenopause and menopause: hot flushes, sleep, mood, vaginal dryness and bone health. Understand HRT benefits and risks and non-hormonal options.

Menopause is a natural stage of life, confirmed when you have not had a period for 12 months. Indian women reach menopause at an average age a little earlier than women in many Western countries, often in their late forties. The years leading up to it, called perimenopause, can bring hot flushes, poor sleep, mood changes and irregular periods. At Asian Navkar Hospital, Indore, menopause care helps you manage symptoms and protect your long-term health.

Common Symptoms

  • Hot flushes and night sweats
  • Irregular periods during perimenopause
  • Sleep problems, tiredness and difficulty concentrating
  • Mood swings, anxiety or low mood
  • Vaginal dryness, discomfort during sex and urinary symptoms
  • Joint aches and reduced libido

Symptoms vary greatly; some women have few, others find daily life affected for years.

Your Menopause Consultation

We review symptoms, periods, medical and family history, and check blood pressure, weight, breasts and pelvis as needed. Tests may include blood sugar, cholesterol, thyroid, vitamin D, and screening such as Pap smear and mammography. Blood hormone tests are not usually needed to diagnose menopause in women over 45 with typical symptoms.

Treatment Options

Lifestyle

Regular exercise, a calcium- and protein-rich diet, limiting caffeine and alcohol, not smoking, and keeping a healthy weight help many symptoms.

Hormone replacement therapy (HRT)

HRT is the most effective treatment for hot flushes and night sweats and helps prevent bone loss. For most healthy women under 60 or within 10 years of menopause, benefits usually outweigh risks. Risks such as blood clots and breast cancer depend on the type, dose and duration; your doctor will tailor treatment.

Non-hormonal options

Certain non-hormonal medicines can reduce hot flushes for women who cannot or prefer not to take HRT.

Vaginal treatments

Low-dose vaginal oestrogen and moisturisers relieve dryness and urinary symptoms safely for most women.

Protecting Long-Term Health

Falling oestrogen increases the risk of osteoporosis and heart disease. We advise bone health checks (including DEXA scan when indicated), weight-bearing exercise, calcium and vitamin D, and control of blood pressure, sugar and cholesterol.

When to See a Doctor Urgently

Any bleeding after menopause (12 months without periods) must be checked promptly, as it can occasionally be a sign of a problem in the womb lining. See our geriatric gynaecology page for more on care after menopause. Periods stopping before 40 may indicate premature ovarian insufficiency and need assessment.
