“…Busch, Zonderman y Costa, 1994;Matthews et al, 1990) aunque en otros sí se ha encontrado mayor riesgo (Bromberger y Kravitz, 2011) y mayor sintomatología depresiva (Judd et al, 2012). En todo caso, estudios de revisión recientes plantean que, aunque se haya observado asociación entre menopausia y depresión, no existe una causa común (Llaneza et al, 2012) y los síntomas depresivos presentados no tiene significación diagnóstica específica (Judd et al, 2012). Y se reconoce que la mayoría de las mujeres pasan de los años de premenopausia a postmenopausia sin desarrollar sintomatología depresiva significativa (Soares, 2010).…”

Resumen: Se analizan las diferencias entre mujeres y hombres en autoestima y en sintomatología depresiva, de ansiedad y somática, estudiando la relevancia del estatus menopáusico y la edad en tales diferencias. Se utilizó un diseño transversal con una muestra de 1341 personas adultas (726 mujeres y 615 hombres) de la población general con diferentes edades, y estatus menopáusico en el caso de las mujeres, quienes respondieron al Cuestionario de Salud General de Goldberg y al Cuestionario de Autoestima de Rector y Roger. Se encontró que las mujeres tenían más síntomas somáti-cos y de ansiedad que los hombres. No se encontraron diferencias en función del género en depresión ni en autoestima entre los más jóvenes, pero a partir de los 40 años las mujeres tenían más síntomas depresivos y menor autoestima que los hombres con edades similares. Los análisis intragénero evidenciaron que los hombres más jóvenes tenían más sintomatología depresiva y menos autoestima que los de más de 40 años, diferencias intragrupo que no se observaron entre las mujeres. Solo se encontraron diferencias entre las mujeres en función del periodo menopáusico en sintomatología somática, que era mayor en las perimenopáusicas respecto a las premeno-páusicas. Se concluye que la menopausia tiene escasa relevancia en las diferencias de género en salud mental.

Abstract: The objective of this study is to examine differences between men and women in self-esteem and depressive, somatic and anxiety symptoms when studying the relevance of menopausal status and age in such differences. Research design was a cross-sectional survey of a general population sample of 1341 (n = 726 women and n = 615 men) adults of different ages and, in the case of women, with different menopausal status. Participants responded to Goldberg General Health Questionnaire and Rector and Roger Self-esteem questionnaire. Results showed that women had more anxiety and somatic symptoms than men. Gender differences in depressive symptoms and self-esteem were not found in younger participants, although women over 40 showed more depressive symptoms and lower self-esteem than men of similar ages. Intra-gender analysis indicated that younger men had more depressive symptoms and less self-esteem than those over 40, whereas these differences were not observed in the women sample. Differences among women were only observed in relation with their diverse menopausal status in somatic symptoms, these latter being greater in perimenopausal than in premenopausal women. These results make clear that menopause has little relevance in gender differences in mental health.

“… Increased susceptibility to inflammation and infection, for example vaginal candidiasis, and urinary tract infections. The risk of acute myocardial infarction and other cardiovascular diseases rises sharply after menopause, but the risk can be reduced by managing risk factors, such as tobacco smoking, hypertension, increased blood lipids and body weight (Llaneza et al, 2012).…”

In females, the reproductive age is characterized by the onset of menstruation called menarche and ceases with the onset of menopause. The female reproductive cycles are controlled by various hormones and these hormones are known as female hormonal system. The female sexual cycle is the cycle of natural changes that occurs in the uterus and ovary as an essential part of making sexual reproduction possible. Its timing is governed by endogenous biological cycles. During the first few days of each monthly female sexual cycle, the concentrations of both FSH and LH secreted by the anterior pituitary gland increase slightly to moderately, with the increase in FSH slightly greater than that of LH and preceding it by a few days. These hormones, especially FSH, cause accelerated growth of 6 to 12 primary follicles each month. Menstruation is the principal cause of iron loss in women. The menstrual period is associated to the rupture of blood vessels which irrigate the superficial layer of the endometrium. Platelets constitute the first haemostatic component that mobilizes in order to interrupt the bleeding as vascular injury occurs. During menstruation, tremendous numbers of leukocytes are released along with the necrotic materials and blood. This is probable as a result of some substances released by the endometrial necrosis which causes the outflow of leukocytes during menstruation. The paper reviewed haematological profile menstruating women,premenopause women and menopause women.
