Understanding perimenopause and menopause
Perimenopause and menopause refer to the natural transition when the body gradually reduces estrogen production. Perimenopause often begins years before menopause and can include irregular periods, bladder changes, sleep disruption, and mood shifts. Menopause is defined as twelve consecutive months without a menstrual period and may bring ongoing symptoms such as urinary urgency, vaginal dryness, painful intercourse, or recurrent urinary tract infections.
These hormonal changes can have a direct impact on the urinary tract and pelvic floor, making urologic care an important part of women’s health during this time.
How perimenopause and menopause affect urologic health
Many women are surprised to learn how closely perimenopause and menopause are linked to urologic symptoms. Decreasing estrogen levels can weaken bladder and urethral tissues, contributing to incontinence, overactive bladder, frequent urination, and increased risk of infection. Sexual health concerns, such as discomfort or reduced sensation, are also common and highly treatable.
At Urology Specialists of Austin, we take a comprehensive approach that addresses both symptoms and underlying causes to improve comfort and long-term outcomes.
