Is it menopause? Maybe, maybe not, but some symptoms may surprise you

Article Abstract:

Hormonal changes in women over 60 can create symptoms for various health problems. If the estrogen level drops, muscles can become weaker, leading to cramping in legs and feet. Reduced estrogen has the overall effect of making skin, hair, nostrils and other parts of the body feel drier because mucous membranes and glands do not function as well as they should.

Article Abstract:

Treatments for asthma have improved in recent years with the advent of inhaled corticosteroids and leukotriene modifiers, as well as bronchodilators. The diagnosis of asthma is still sometimes missed, however, as physicians look for obvious symptoms only.
