Debatable....

Something was brought up today during lecture that caught my attention. It occurred when we were being taught menopausal and its associated signs and symptoms, where we were told that sitting right at the top of the list of things that women undergoing menopause complained about was depression. And although many theories were put forward, such as the depletion of trytophan and the ‘empty nest syndrome’.... it actually seemed pretty obvious (and many of the girls are going to deny this….) that the main reason why women over 50 feel depressed is simply because they undergo atrophic vaginitis leading to the development of dyspareunia.
