THE MOST COMMON UROLOGICAL CONDITIONS IN POSTMENOPAUSAL WOMEN.

OBJECTIVE: The aim: To analyze the available literature on the most common daily urological problems in menopausal women and to evaluate the use of hormone replacement therapy for troublesome urological symptoms. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Materials and methods: Analysis of publications from PubMed databases on the most common disorders during menopause was performed and the most common urog¬ynaecological problems in postmenopausal women were selected according to literature data. Different available methods of treatment of these disorders were compared. Conclusions: During menopause, women struggle with many unpleasant symptoms from the genitourinary system. For most women, this is a very embarrassing topic and, although bothersome, underestimated. The urinary tract infections, urinary incontinence or kidney stones can lead to serious complications, if left untreated. We should strive to make women more aware of possible methods of prevention and treatment of the menopausal symptoms in the context of urological disorders.
