Abstract

The article presents the main clinical variants of the surgical menopause syndrome (SMS), provides modern views on the treatment of this pathology.The purpose of the study was to identify the features of the clinical course of SMS compared to the typical climacteric syndrome, to present modern views on its management, and to determine ways of prevention.To achieve this goal, a literature search and analysis was conducted in the PubMed scientometric database for the last 15 years, and domestic scientific publications related to the mechanisms of development, clinical course, and management of SMS were selected. At the current stage, there is a significant increase in the prevalence of uterine leiomyomas, as well as a tendency to increase the frequency of this pathology in young women. Given that 50% of uterine leiomyomas have symptomatic course, the number of surgical interventions for leiomyomas is also increasing.Hysterectomy occupies a significant place among operative interventions for benign tumors of the uterus and ovaries. As a result of hysterectomy (with or without oophorectomy) in women, SMS occurs. The main pathogenetic mechanism of SMS is hypoestrogeny. As a result, a symptom complex of menopausal disorders develops: vegetative-vascular, neuropsychic, metabolic and urogenital disorders. Compared to the classic climacteric syndrome, the clinical condition in surgical menopause is more acute and progresses faster.The management of SMS depends on the volume of surgical intervention, the age of the patient, and concomitant pathology. Treatment of SMS should be individualized and include the use of menopausal hormone therapy, herbal preparations, multivitamin complexes against the background of lifestyle modification.The prevention of SMS consists in the wide use of modern conservative and minimally invasive operations in the case of surgical treatment of benign tumors of the uterus and ovaries, a balanced approach to determining the volume of operations.
