[메디컬투데이=최민석 기자] As the cold and dry weather continues, winter has arrived, requiring special attention to personal health care. Like nature, our bodies are compared to the four seasons: childhood and adolescence are compared to spring, youth and adulthood in their 20s and 40s are compared to summer, middle age in their 50s and 60s is compared to fall, and old age following 70s is compared to winter.
The biggest change that women experience in old age as they prepare for the winter of life is menopause. Female menopause begins with a rapid decline in female hormones, and the biggest cause is menopause. It usually begins in the mid to late 40s, and the quality of life can be reduced due to various physical and mental changes, such as hot flashes, night sweats, sudden mood changes, and memory loss.
There are various methods to treat menopause, including hormone replacement therapy, nutritional supplements, and placental injections. If you do not feel a noticeable change just by taking nutritional supplements, placenta injections can replenish the nutrients your body needs and essentially improve hormonal problems.
Placental injection is a treatment method in which a pregnant woman removes blood and hormones from the placenta, which supplies nutrition to the fetus, breaks down proteins into amino acids, and then injects the nutrients necessary for the human body. It helps alleviate menopausal symptoms and is also used to improve liver function decline, skin aging, and decreased immunity. In addition, it is used for various purposes, such as helping to relieve atopic dermatitis and fatigue.

The placenta, which is used as a raw material for placenta injections, plays a role in supplying oxygen, nutrients, and immune substances to the fetus during pregnancy. It is rich in over 100 types of cell growth factors, amino acids, and minerals, including growth factors that increase immunity. In addition, unlike existing hormone replacement therapies, it has the advantage of having fewer side effects and can be used for a long period of time, so if you receive appropriate treatment early, you can see results without major side effects.
Lee Mi-young, CEO of Asan Ewha Family Medicine, said, “Menopause is a natural part of aging, but the quality of life can vary depending on how it is managed.” He added, “Menopausal women who have actually experienced menopause take nutritional supplements to improve physical and mental discomfort. It is often taken, and although it may have a conservative effect, it is difficult to consider it as a fundamental treatment method. “If you are experiencing menopausal symptoms, it is best to find a specialist with extensive medical experience and address the root cause with a treatment method that suits you,” she advised.
