The age of forty. When a woman panickes

Some women become prettier, and some panic, but many of them, too, rush to life with passion, trying to catch every amazing moment, and very carefully not to miss any opportunity to enjoy the joys of the new age: forty!


When asked about age, women sometimes hesitate to answer, but after forty they always hesitate! However, the typical woman, from the point of view of mature men, is often the forty mature tried and wise, and non-requirement, and the physical maturity be more complete, and can not here but bring us the famous saying of the poet Mahmoud Darwish: «A woman enters forty full apricot...».


In forty, a woman enters a different stage of her life, a stage that she has always feared and waited for with anxiety and tension, to begin with that passion to discover the physical changes that have occurred to her, and the desire to compensate the soul and body for what they missed, despite the consensus of many that each age has its beauty and charm, in addition to others who considered age a prison locked inside it without achieving the desired dreams.


Among the personal opinions of a group of forties, experts generally agree that the period after forty, is considered one of the most periods in which women need to take care of themselves and pay attention to their health and psychology, considering that the situation that women reach after forty is the fruit of the way they chose to live before that, and that the healthy way followed by women after forty is what determines what they will face during the period of health and psychological problems that turn them from a woman full of beauty and maturity, to another suffering Age problems and early menopausal symptoms.



Life circumstances
Amina Salem (46 years old) from Ras Al Khaimah believes that the situation that a woman reaches after the age of forty, «does not depend only on the way she lives her neighborhood, but on the life conditions she faces and the problems she finds herself in front of», considering herself «forty locked in the body of an old woman, everyone who looks at me can see the signs of severe aging on my face and body, and the extent to which my appearance is affected by the signs of aging, which I did not feel It sweeps me, and I only discovered it in my sister's wedding photos, which made me shocked by what I see in front of me," she said, explaining that what she sees in the mirror is very different from what she discovered about herself in the photos.


Amina does not blame the circumstances that made her face many tragedies in her life that made crying and constant illness her friends, «although I was the most beautiful of my sisters in my youth, but now I look the oldest of them, to the point that I seem to be a sister to my mother», admitting that she did not think in the midst of her life, which she considers sad and deplorable, to take care of her external appearance or that her indifference to her health may greatly affect her, «nor did I try to educate myself and research in the field of health Women after forty and what suits them and what enhances their strength and youth», advising every young woman and woman before and after forty to be aware of the importance of health care and beauty and the importance of reading and promoting awareness and health culture for women after forty, considering that «the Internet has become the best and easy means of research, learning and education in all areas that one needs».



Heredity Aisha Mohammed (32) years old from Sharjah, that the extent to which the external appearance is affected by age and the passage of time, is only «a genetic matter that one cannot change the result of much, there are families whose women enjoy beauty and continuous youth, depending on the nature of the body and the extent of its flexibility and freshness, and there are those whose bodies and skin are greatly affected by the passage of time or with pregnancy and childbearing», but at the same time she believes that genetics may play a clear indicator for women to start taking care of themselves. And her health early in the thirties and even after forty, «a woman knows her physical nature and inherited from her parents, which gives her a relative ability to predict what may become of her in the future».


While Salwa Kamel (42 years old) from Dubai, admits that she made a number of plastic surgeries years ago with the entry of her fortieth year, «where I felt that I need to feel and see my rejuvenation, and that I am beautiful again, where I had a lift for the stomach and abdomen in particular, after giving birth to my last child and my decision after having more than five children, in addition to undergoing an eyelid lift, and blowing the lips», indicating that plastic surgery is not a bad thing, «and there is no harm from exploiting science and new Medicine and surgeries to feel good and renew self-confidence."


Forty.. the pinnacle of maturity
From a scientific angle, the Director General of Gulf Specialist Hospital in Dubai, and Head of its Plastic Surgery Department, Dr. Ali Al-Numeiri, believes that «with the passage of time and the scientific, medical and technical progress that the world is witnessing, this development has produced positive returns on health in general and women's health in particular, so the age of forty to fifty became the top of the age pyramid, and the peak of maturity for women, after that period previously represented the last decade of their life», indicating that they are therefore at the top of Her giving and performance in this period, pointing out that there are reasons that made it important to focus on this age stage for women, the most important of which is «changing the social concept of the age of forty based on biological data and medical and scientific variables, in addition to investing this acquired age balance positively towards building serious data that make the second half of life full of vitality and giving as it was in the first part of her life».


It is believed that the most important changes that women go through during this period are aesthetic changes, considering that the most health problems faced by women at this age are «obesity and skin damage of various types of atrophy, sagging or wrinkled skin and the appearance of wrinkles».


With regard to obesity among Nimeiri that during fetal life fat cells grow around the roots of capillaries under the dermis layer of the skin, and with the development of age these cells go through two changes: the first is the proliferation of these cells, which increases with age after birth significantly to reach its maximum at puberty, to begin to then decrease until it stops at adolescence, and after adulthood the fat cells reach almost their full number and are called «mothers of cells», which are concentrated In females at the abdomen, pelvis and thighs, adding that the second change is the increase in the size of these cells, where the size is in a state of continuous increase until middle age, where it stabilizes somewhat after puberty, unless there is obesity and excessive overweight, this is reflected in the size of these cells and here is called weight gain and with it the increase in the size of each fat cell.


Nimeiri adds that the problem that accompanies obesity after forty is the formation of the graphic reaction of fat by «esterification», and fat inside fat cells has a limit, because it brings the mothers of cells to differentiation, and large in size and once this differentiation occurs can not diet food or any other means remove these cells and the new is surgical eradication or liposuction.


They add that women after the age of forty, exposed to a series of physiological variables as a result of hormonal disorders, accompany this age, and the most frequent of these changes is the steady decrease in the mass of connective substances, whether in the bones, or in the muscles and the same in the skin and skin tissue. Scientists estimate the annual percentage of this atrophy, which ranges in women from 1.5% to 2% and sometimes even 3% each year, "which is very high if left untreated or observed, whether preventive, compensatory, cosmetic or rehabilitation."

The men of the 40 are happier

A study of 29 countries, published in the United States, showed that men after the age of 40 are happier than women in their sexual relations, and that a large proportion of those between the ages of 80 and <> who live with their partner regularly have sex.


The study, conducted by researchers from the University of Chicago in the northern United States and published in the journal Archive of Sexual Behavior, aimed to find out how men and women see their sexuality, health and happiness in the second half of their lives in different cultures.


The study showed that three-quarters of people surveyed in Europe, North America and Australia expressed satisfaction with their physical, emotional and sexual health, with the highest rates of satisfaction recorded in Austria, the United States, Spain and Canada, with France ranking lower than Britain and Sweden.


In the conservative countries of the Middle East and Asia (China, Indonesia and Japan) where culture gives men superiority over women, the proportion of men as well as women who expressed happiness in their sexuality was much lower, but men were more satisfied than women.


Even in Asia, a large proportion of women considered sexual intercourse humiliating, or obligatory to perform against their will, and many said they rejected it after the age of fifty; in Japan, only 18% of men and 10% of women said they were satisfied with their sexuality, while the percentage fell to 7% among women in Taiwan.
