Hypogastric cystic swelling can be felt due to full bladder b. After emptying the bladder, a tensely tender mass occupying the lower abdomen can be felt due to haematocolpos but rarely due té hamatometra and haematosalphix.

Aetiology:- Menopause occurs as a result of exhaustion of ovum from ovarian follicles and consequent oestrogen deprivation. Timing: > Menopause occurs at an average age of 45 years in India and 51 years in the west. > Genetic makeup, race, climate influence age of menopause. > Premature menopause occurs before 35 years and delayed menopause after 55 years. > Delayed menopause is mainly due to some pelvic pathology (uterine fibroid) or in diabetes mellitus. > Climacteric period gradually starts 2-3 years before and 2-5 years after menopause, Physiofogical changes in menopausal and postmenopausal periods:- Physical > body weight decreases after 65 years. > Skin becomes less elastic and wrinkles appear. > Fat deposition in hip and thighs. > Height diminishes after 65 year. > kyphosis develops due to spinal osteoporosis. Bone effect:- > osteoporosis is the long term significant sequalae af postmenopausal estrogen insufficiency. > Vertebral and forearm fractures become more common in women than men. > Reduction of osteoblast and calcium loss leads to reduction of bone mass. [Measurement of bone mineral density (BMD) of bones is done.) Cardiovascular: > Menstruating women get less ischaemic coronary heart disease due to oestradiol protection, > The incidence rises and equals to that in men 6-10 years after menopause. Endocrinal:- > Because of low negative oestradiol feed back in postmenopause, FSH rises to 50 mlu/mi (50-150) and LH $0 mIU/ml (50-150 miU/ mi > Progesterone secretion from ovary ceases due to failure of ovulation. > Testosterone secretion increased and is also secreted by ovarian stroma > Prolactin level fails. Genital effects:- > In postmenopause progressive atrophy of genital organs with more and more fibrosis occurs. Mediicosys - Since 1999 16 Gynaecology > Ovary reduced to 5 gm, fibrotic, furrowed surface, Follicles get exhausted. Stromal hyperplasia produces androgens. > Fallopian tubes shrink > Uterus becomes small and fibrotic. Endometrium atrophies, > Cervix atrophies and flushes with vaginal vault. Vaginal epithelium atropl with loss of rugosity. > Vulva atrophies with narrowing of vaginal orifice. Secondary sex characters:- Breast glandular tissue atrophies, breast becomes flabby and pendulous due to deposition of fat. Pubic and axillary hair become sparse. Sex urge increases at menopause (due to rise in adrenal testosterone) declining after 65 years. Urogenital - atrophic urethritis occurs due to hypooestrogenism. this leat Clinical ids to urinary symptoms and infection to urethra and bladder. features of menopause Symptoms: Signs:- 1) In majority, menopause is asymptomatic other than amenorthoea and minor ailments. 2) Menopausal syndrome: > Hot flushes is the classic symptom. > It comes as recurrent, transient periods of feeling of heat at head and neck flushing, sweating that appears 5-10 times a day lasting for 1-3 minutes. > This can extend to upper chest and back. [Mechanism:- the cause is unclear. Oestrogen withdrawal at menopause, vascular instability and psychological compotent are considered the factors. } . 3) Menstrual pattern before menopause ensues in three forms of menses. a) Progressive scanty menses then cessation. B) Menses come at prolonged interval before ceasing. } Sudden ceasation. 4) Menorthagia and irregular uterine bleeding are not menopausal but due to pelvic pathology. 5) Sleeplessness, anxiety, mood change, forgetfulness. 6) Joint pains, backpain 7) Dyspareunia, 8) Urinary disturbance. 1, These appear gradually, weight increases following menopause. 2. Greying of hair at head, growing of hair on face. Breasts are examined as a routine. 3. Vulva normal immediately after menopause. 4, In geriatric period it shrinks with narrowing of vaginal introitus and sparse pubic hair. 5.

Essential laboratory tests, Blood Hb%, postmeal blood glucose, routine urine test, blood lipids every year. Cervical cytology pap stain every 3 years. Treatment of menopaus 1. Patient's education is the first line of treatment educating the woman that menopause is not a disease but natural change of life. 2, She is advised on proper diet, drinking boiled water, afternoon rest, good sleep at night, daily walking, avoiding. Constipation by isafgul, and sex education. 3. In anxiety, tab. Alprazolam (restyl) 0.5 mg at bed time daily for a month and repeated. 4. For sleep. Tab. Diazepam 5 mgm or lorazepam (atevan) 2 mg at bed time for § days in 2 week except weekend is prescribed. 5. Hormone replacement therapy [HRT] ‘A] Short term HRT for 6 to 12 months or more can effectively retieve hot flushes (menopausal syndrome) within 3 months. First line of drug is oestrone sulfate contained in conjugated equine oestrogen - tab. Premarin 0.625 mg (28 tab. In a strip) is taken orally with water at bedtime continuously daily for 6 months or more following, 8] Longterm HRT:- this is advocated for preventive health care in postmenopausal woman. However, the risk of developing breast and endometrial carcinoma has not yet been solved on longterm HRT. Oestrogen is taken for 10 years or more to get benefit. oo ¢- Mediicosys - Since 1999 18 mene Gynaecology Oligomenorthoea [> ranges +han ar dows This means infrequent menses at intervals longer than 35 days.

Bromocryptine (proctinal, sicryptine) 2.5 mg one Heavy menstruation and abnormal uterine haemorrhage Polymenorrhoea (epimenorrhoea) This means too frequent menstruation at regular intervals of two weeks but less than 3 weeks. Such cyclical bleeding can be normal in amount but when becomes heavy, the condition is called epimenorrhagia. Woman suffers from the symptom when it persists more than 3 cycles. Aetiology: (A) Endocrine disorders :- this is due to anovulation; there is shortening of proliferative phase. This group is caused by endocrinal upset and can be included under dysfunctional uterine haemorrhage. (8) Systemic disorders:- malnutrition and mental anxiety. (C) Pehic disorders :- chronic pelvic inflammatory disease, chocolate cyst of the ovary.

Hormonal treatment should not be done for a recent case; in them spontaneous cure often happens on primary health care with correction of anaemia. In persistent cases producing anaemia, hormone therapy is useful.
