Menopause and Alzheimer's disease syndrome

Although Alzheimers disease AD is a primary degenerative brain disease of unknown etiology, its pathogenesis is related to the decrease in estrogen levels and affecting brain structure and function. Alzheimer's disease has characteristic neuropathological and neurochemical changes. It often hides onset, develops slowly and steadily over a period of several years, and usually dies 6 to 12 years after onset. Early-onset dementia syndrome was first reported by Alzheimer in 1907 as a case of Alzheimer disease, AD, or Alzheimer disease. Another type of dementia, which has a late onset, was once called Alzheimer's disease. In recent years, people have recognized that the neuropathological changes of these two diseases are the same, so they can be regarded as the same disease.
