This is a time that women should take up new challenges in life and live life to the fullest. Unfortunately, due to age-old superstitions and myths, menopause has gotten a bad reputation and is greeted with dread.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"  id=\"q1\"><span style=\"font-size: 18pt; color: #000000;\"><strong>Why is menopause feared?<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Women experience menopause between the ages of around 45 and 55. It causes changes in a woman\u2019s body which may cause discomfort. According to <strong>gynaecological surgeons<\/strong>, common menopausal symptoms include:-<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>Hot flashes<\/li>\n<li>Vaginal dryness<\/li>\n<li>Mood swings<\/li>\n<li>Insomnia<\/li>\n<li>Lethargy<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/kauveryhospital.com\/blog\/psychiatry\/world-health-day-2017-depression-lets-talk\/\">Depression<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Anxiety<\/li>\n<li>Hair loss<\/li>\n<li>Irritability<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Bodily sensations and reactions that accompany menopause can be overwhelming and sometimes even embarrassing. This has given rise to a negative image associated with menopause and women have, for far too long, looked at menopause with dread.
