Why don't pre-pubertal girls have symptoms of hot flashes and osteoporosis?
Answers:
Because they don't have a lot of testosterone as do older women. You see, when a person goes through puberty, their body doesn't just increase the production of the hormone responsible for their sexual characteristics -- they experience an increase in both male and female hormones regardless of their sex. So when a woman's estrogen level decreases in menopause, she may still produce the same amount of testosterone as she did when she was young, only it isn't balanced out as much by the estrogen like it used to be. Children, on the other hand, have very little of either sex hormone, which is why they don't experience such things as hot flashes and osteoporosis, not to mention that they have enough growth hormones to help prevent such diseases.
