Can Lexapro help with menopause?
I know some doctors have taken to prescribing antidepressants to menopausal and perimenopausal women for hot flashes or what have you, but I believe this is a detrimental thing to do:
First of all, the antidepressants mess with your hormones. Your hormones are already going through a transition. To further exacerbate this situation is like asking for trouble.
Secondly, one of the two MAJOR complaints of menopausal women are lack of sex drive and weight gain --- both of these are notorious side effects of antidepressants. So you might alleviate a bit of the hot flashes, but you're going to have hormonally imbalanced, increasingly fat and sexually-unhappy women going around (and this affects the spouses, the families, everyone).
I would suggest staying away from antidepressants in the treatment of menopause. Go with herbal, SAFE menopause relief. Know your options, and give your body what it needs to transition smoothly, not just mask an issue.

What percent of post menopause women are sexually active?
There is no reliable research on this matter. There is no reason Post menopausal women shouldnt be sexually active and enjoy it. Many Post menopausal find the relief from concerns over child bearing to increase thier enjoyment and frequency. Others suffer from Vaginal dryness as a result of menopause and that greatly reduces the enjoyment. Lower libido or loss of sex drive is also common in women in their post child bearing years, due to lowered Testosterone production and lower estrogen levels. Hormone replacement therapy is a common and highly successful treatment for Libido, Vaginal dryness and even the sex drive, weight gain, joint pain and anxiety issues common to menopausal women.
It depends on personal circumstances but often low haemoglobin levels indicate excessive blood loss. In women this is usually caused by heavy or irregular periods. It is important to ensure you maintain healthy haemoglobin levels as blood carries oxygen around to the body and to the brain; low haem levels can starve the brain.
