Hyperandrogenism is associated with a higher risk of cardiovascular events and gynecological neoplasms, also impacting the emotional well-being of affected women. Therefore, the aim of these guidelines is to guide the clinical physician in the appropriate clinical and biochemical evaluation of hyperandrogenism after menopause, thus optimizing therapeutic outcomes. The most frequent consultation in this stage of life is facial hirsutism associated with hair loss. If the onset of signs is abrupt, severe, associated with virilization and accompanied by serum testosterone levels in the male range, it is necessary to rule out a tumoral origin. A thorough medical history guides the diagnosis. Determination of total testosterone using reliable methods and imaging studies are valid tools to assist when doubts arise in the differential diagnosis.","PeriodicalId":10213,"journal":{"name":"Climacteric","volume":" ","pages":"1-8"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2024-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142615994","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, medical eligibility criteria for combined hormonal contraception (CHC) use must be taken into consideration when choosing an appropriate contraceptive method. Women should be counseled on the benefits and risks of CHC while in their 40s. If there are no contraindications, women may use CHC for contraception up until the age of 50 years. Loss of libido is a common symptom during the late 40s. While women associate this with hormone levels, libido is multifactorial and is influenced by family and work stress, tiredness, self-image, medications and the physical changes in their partner. During this stage, women might experience urogenital issues such as vaginal dryness, dyspareunia and bladder problems, which can further affect the woman's sexual function. Before attributing the cause of sexual dysfunction to CHC use, a complete gynecologic examination and a full biopsychosocial assessment of the woman and her partner should be conducted to define other potential causes. When CHC-related female sexual dysfunction is suspected, using an oral CHC with a higher estrogen dose, a vaginal contraceptive ring or a transdermal contraceptive patch, or switching to a progesterone-only pill or non-hormonal method, might be suggested.","PeriodicalId":10213,"journal":{"name":"Climacteric","volume":" ","pages":"1-6"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2024-11-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142615997","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Gu and Eun's Seogeulpeum Scale was employed to evaluate seogeulpeum, alongside questionnaires to assess menopause status and symptoms, self-efficacy, social support and aging anxiety. To determine factors influencing seogeulpeum, a multiple stepwise regression analysis was conducted.Results: The average seogeulpeum score was 2.4 ± 0.44, indicating a moderate level of seogeulpeum experienced by the participants. Seogeulpeum was positively correlated with aging anxiety and menopausal symptoms, and negatively with self-efficacy and social support, among which aging anxiety most significantly influenced seogeulpeum. Aging anxiety, menopausal symptoms and social support combined accounted for 60.9% of the variation observed in seogeulpeum.Conclusions: The findings indicate the importance of health interventions aimed at reducing aging anxiety and menopausal symptoms and enhancing social support for promoting well-being and facilitating a healthy menopausal transition among middle-aged women.

Nevertheless, the causal relationship remains unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the causal effects of ANM on ventricular structure and function by Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis.Methods: Genome-wide association summary statistics for ANM and 16 ventricular structures and functions were obtained. The inverse variance weighted (IVW) method was the primary MR approach for assessing causal associations. In addition, three additional MR methods (MR-Egger, weighted median and weighted mode) were performed to complement the IVW method. Furthermore, various sensitivity tests were conducted to evaluate the reliability of the MR results.Results: The IVW method identified no causal association between ANM and all 16 ventricular structures or functions (p > 0.05). Three additional MR methods yielded parallel results to the IVW approach (p > 0.05). Various sensitivity tests revealed stability of the MR results, indicating no heterogeneity or horizontal pleiotropy.Conclusion: The present MR study indicated that ANM would not causally affect ventricular structure or function. Therefore, the correlation between ANM and ventricular characteristics in previous observational studies might be attributed to shared upstream cardiovascular risk factors or unidentified genetic mutations that simultaneously affect both ANM and ventricular structure and function.","PeriodicalId":10213,"journal":{"name":"Climacteric","volume":" ","pages":"501-506"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141757464","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
