I wanted to know is being sad and depressed a part of menopause?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It can be: People often have mood symptoms with menopause. If it is severe, causes a functional problem or significant distress, or is associated with higher risk symptoms, such as suicidal thoughts, or is long lasting, you should speak to your ob/gyn for starters and see if you would benefit from treatment or referral e.g. to a psychiatrist.
