Navigating Menopausal Changes: Tips for Your Brain's Success
Menopause is not just a reproductive transition but also a neurological one, with approximately 70% of women experiencing neurological symptoms during the transition. The brain undergoes significant changes during menopause, impacting memory and cognitive function, with hot flashes potentially indicating cognitive issues. Research suggests a link between menopause and Alzheimer's disease, emphasizing the importance of understanding and communicating symptoms. Lifestyle modifications, hormone therapy, and other medical options can help manage menopausal symptoms, but further research is needed to understand the brain's transition during menopause and develop more treatment options.
