Understanding Menopause - Symptoms
What Are the Symptoms?
Not all women experience symptoms with the onset of menopause. If menopausal symptoms occur, they may include hot flashes, night sweats, pain during intercourse, increased anxiety or irritability, and the need to urinate more often.
Call Your Doctor If:
- You experience bleeding again after menopause. Among other possibilities, bleeding may be a sign of uterine cancer, so you should see your doctor.
- Your symptoms are causing problems or interfering with your daily life. Your doctor may be able to prescribe medications to help relieve your symptoms.
Find a hospital by procedure or condition
ENABLEX is a prescription medicine used in adults to treat the following symptoms due to a condition called overactive bladder:
- · having a strong need to go to the bathroom right away (also called "urgency")
- · leaks or wetting accidents (also called "urinary incontinence")
- · having to go to the bathroom too often (also called "urinary frequency")
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
You should not take once-daily ENABLEX if you have certain types of stomach problems, glaucoma, or have trouble emptying your bladder. Side effects of ENBLEX include blurred vision, and more commonly dry mouth, constipation, indigestion, and abdominal pain. Use caution when doing certain activities until you know how ENBALEX affects you.
A generation ago, no one talked about menopause. Today it's openly discussed. But some common menopause myths persist.
