MENOPAUSE
dr. Ide Pustaka Setiawan, M.Sc.(HPE), Sp.OG
400.000 oocytes
Variation in oocyte number and hormone levels during prenatal and postnatal periods
Levels of AMH decrease markedly and progressively across the menopausal transition
PHYSIOLOGIC CHANGES:
Hypothalamus-Pituitary-Ovarian Axis Changes
The transition from ovulatory
cycles to menopause typically
begins in the late 40s and in early
menopausal transition (stage -2)
In menopause phase the levels of
FSH rise slightly
Perubahan Endokrinologik pada menopause
Bone remodeling.
A. Osteoclasts resorb matrix, whereas osteoblasts deposit new lamellar bone. Osteoblasts that are trapped in the matrix become osteocytes. Osteoblasts
produce the proteins RANKL and OPG. When RANKL binds to RANK, which is a receptor on the surface of osteoclast progenitor cells, this promotes
those cells’ development, activity, and survival as osteoclasts. This leads to bone resorption. OPG serves as a counterbalance. OPG binds to RANKL,
and thereby, RANKL is incapable of binding with RANK to promote osteoclast development. Through this mechanism, bone resorption is limited.
B. With hypoestrogenism, RANKL production is increased. Excessive levels of RANKL outnumber those of OPG, and osteoclast development and bone
resorption is favored. OPG osteoprotegerin; RANK receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-β; RANKL RANK ligand.

CARDIOVASCULAR CHANGES
Before menopause, women have a
much lower risk for cardiovascular
events compared with men their age.
Younger women have high-density
lipoprotein (HDL) levels which is an
effect of estrogen.
The risk of CVD increases
exponentially for women as they enter
the postmenopause and estrogen levels
decline
Dermatologic Changes
Sleep Dysfunction
Sleep fragmentation is commonly associated
with hot flashes and results in daytime
fatigue, mood lability, irritability, and
problems with short-term memory
Cognitive dysfunction
Memory decreases with advancing age
Although no direct effect of lowered
estrogen levels on memory and cognition
has been determined, many investigators
suspect a relationship cognitive decline during
menopause
Psychological changes
Estrogen receptors have been identified in the vulva, vagina, bladder, urethra, pelvic floor musculature, and
endopelvic fascia
Lower Reproductive Tract Changes
Symptoms of urogenital atrophy, including
vaginal dryness and dyspareunia
Without estrogen, the vagina loses collagen,
adipose tissue, and ability to retain water
Vaginal pH becomes more alkaline, and a pH
greater than 4.5 is typically observed with
estrogen deficiency
An alkaline pH creates a vaginal environment
less hospitable to lactobacilli and more
susceptible to infection by urogenital and faecal
pathogens
