Welcome to our first episode of Discussing Menopause with Wellness Journey!
We will be looking at how one's mindset can affect the mental wellness of women who are undergoing menopause and perimenopause!
Question ONE: What are some mental health issues that arise amongst Menopausal and Perimenopausal women in Singapore?
Menopause can have significant effects on our emotions and due to other stressors that we may already have, it is not uncommon for one to feel overwhelmed and unable to cope. Some effects are increased irritability, more anxiety, difficulty sleeping and depressed mood.
Of course, effects vary and some women experience worse symptoms than others.
