Q: hi, are there any new health issues, which begin after menopause?

: There are the menopause symptoms-like hot flashes, that occur around the time of menopause and last for a few years. The risk of heart disease goes up after menopause. There’s a higher risk of cancer but that is more age-related rather than menopause related. Hope this helps! Good luck!
