Emotional responses to menopausal symptoms vary greatly between women.
Younger women may have particular concerns about loss of libido, loss of fertility or a feeling of growing old prematurely. Sleep deprivation associated with night sweats can also result in moodiness and irritability.
Managing mood changes can be more of a challenge for women who are working or caring for young children. Recognising these symptoms and allowing time for self-care (‘time out’) can help. If you’re experiencing feelings that are overwhelming you or interfering with your daily activities, talk to your treatment team. |
