Il Tempo: “Non ho l'età: donna e menopausa” all'Università Europea di Roma (UER)

Martedì 24 marzo 2026 si terrà a Roma, presso l'Università Europea di Roma (UER), il Corso “Non ho l'età: donna e menopausa” organizzato dalla Divisione di Ginecologia dell'Ospedale San Carlo di Nancy - GVM care - Roma (dott. Giuseppe Sorrenti / dott. Mariavita Ciccarone).
Una donna che sta per andare in menopausa manifesta disagio, nervosismo, insofferenza, intolleranza, ma soprattutto si domanda: “sto invecchiando pure io?  Ma non ho l'età …”
I relatori, tutti di grande competenza nel campo, cercheranno di rispondere a queste domande, analizzando inoltre stati di menopausa “meno fisiologici”: precoce, anticipata e quella particolare menopausa, detta iatrogena, che riguarda le donne con malattie oncologiche o croniche.
Si parlerà dei trattamenti più moderni destinati ai sintomi locali, oltre quelli sistemici; verrà descritta la terapia ormonale sostituiva, anche con ormoni bioidentici, la cura dei disturbi del sonno e dell'umore, la salvaguardia dell'integrità delle ossa.

“I’m too old: woman and menopause” at the European University of Rome (UER).

On Tuesday, March 24, 2026, a course titled “I’m Too Young: Woman and Menopause” will be held in Rome, at the European University of Rome (UER), organized by the Gynecology Division of the San Carlo Hospital of Nancy - GVM care - Rome (Dr. Giuseppe Sorrenti / Dr. Mariavita Ciccarone).

A woman who is about to enter menopause experiences discomfort, nervousness, irritability, intolerance, but above all she asks herself: “Am I aging too? But I’m not ready…”

The speakers, all highly competent in the field, will try to answer these questions, also analyzing “less physiological” menopause states: premature, premature, and that particular menopause, called iatrogenic, which concerns women with oncological or chronic diseases.

They will discuss the most modern treatments aimed at local symptoms, as well as systemic ones; hormone replacement therapy will be described, even with bioidentical hormones, the treatment of sleep and mood disorders, and the preservation of bone integrity.

Me: I'm exhausted, I have no spell slots or executive function.

Doctor: Ok, let's send you to two specialists.

5 phone calls later, I still have no appointments, and I now am in the red on the above-mentioned things.
