SEX HORMONE LEVELS AFTER MENOPAUSE: PROGESTERONE AND ANDROGENS

Posted by admin

Progesterone

With the approach of menopause and less frequent ovulation, production of progesterone by the ovaries dwindles. However, the level of progesterone after menopause is similar to that of the early part of the menstrual cycle in the fertile years. This progesterone is produced by the adrenal glands.

Androgens

There are three kinds of androgen, and the balance changes after menopause. Overall, the level of androgens produced at that stage is lower than beforehand, with a more marked reduction in women who have had a surgical menopause.

Because testosterone is the most dominant androgen, and because its level after menopause is still relatively high, it plays a rather more dominant role in the sex hormone system after the menopause than beforehand.
