The menopause is not an illness, it is a natural stage in a woman’s life. Women in many other cultures do not experience the menopause as a crisis demanding medical intervention and many women sail through the menopause without any symptoms.
Typically, menopause happens at approx. 51 but in the up to 10 years prior to that time, women can experience the perimenopause and a woman can feel like she is losing her mind.
Symptoms vary from woman to woman but can include:
Hot flushes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, mood swings, declining libido, ageing skin, low energy or fatigue, joint pains, weight gain, headaches and changes in hair quality.
Women may also be concerned with the increase risk of cardiovascular disease and osteoporosis
Of ladies, aren’t we lucky!!
Thankfully, your diet & lifestyle habits can support your health during this phase (whether you are on HRT or not)
