Menopause in Smithtown, NY
Menopause Care at Evia Medical of Smithtown
At Evia Medical of Smithtown, we understand that menopause is more than a biological milestone — it’s a deeply personal life transition that affects every woman differently. Our approach focuses on providing compassionate, individualized care to help you navigate this stage with confidence, comfort, and vitality.Understanding Menopause
Menopause marks the natural end of a woman’s reproductive years. It is officially diagnosed after 12 consecutive months without a menstrual period and typically occurs between ages 45 and 55, though it can happen earlier or later. This stage results from a natural decline in the production of estrogen and progesterone — hormones that regulate the menstrual cycle and support numerous functions in the body. While menopause is a normal part of life, its physical, emotional, and metabolic changes can be challenging. Our goal is to guide you through these changes with treatments that address the whole person — body, mind, and spirit.
Common Signs and Symptoms
Every woman’s experience with menopause is unique, but common symptoms may include:
- Hot flashes and night sweats – sudden warmth or flushing that can disrupt daily activities and sleep.
- Irregular periods – lighter, heavier, or unpredictable menstrual cycles during perimenopause (the years leading up to menopause).
- Sleep disturbances – difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep.
- Mood changes – irritability, anxiety, sadness, or decreased motivation.
- Vaginal dryness and discomfort – changes in vaginal tissue and lubrication.
- Memory and concentration changes – sometimes referred to as “brain fog.”
- Weight gain or changes in metabolism – shifts in body composition due to hormonal changes.
