Menopause: Finding Relief the Natural Way

Menopause

Menopause is a completely natural phase in a woman's life where menstruation ceases. This usually occurs anywhere between the ages of 45 and 55.

With drugs like HRT so readily available now, we tend to forget that nature has provided us with a gentle and natural solution for every natural "deviation" of health. Menopause is one of those things that naturally occurs in a woman's life and is one of the reasons why it responds so beautifully to natural remedies.

How do I know if I'm going through menopause?

When you begin to enter the menopausal phase of life, estrogen and progesterone begin to drop. This change in hormonal balance can lead to:

  • Absent menstrual cycle
  • Weight gain
  • Hot flushes
  • Sweating or night sweats
  • Depression and sadness
  • Fatigue
  • Anxiety
  • Low libido
  • Vaginal dryness
  • Decrease in bone density

What can I do?

As a naturopath, my approach to treating the symptoms of menopause would include the use of herbal medicine, homoeopathy and in some cases nutrient supplementation.

Using herbal medicine is such a fast, effective and gentle way to restore balance during this change of life as it can be completely customised to your individual symptoms.

I have a few go-to herbs that I absolutely love for fatigue, hot flushes and sweating that can begin to reduce the severity of these symptoms within a few days.

Using homoeopathy and practicing mindfulness are lovely ways to alleviate symptoms of anxiety and sadness while the herbs work to restore some internal balance.

Many women experience weight gain around their mid-section and there are some very basic dietary changes that can be made to target this area. Reducing your consumption of sugars and caffeine can also assist in reducing the frequency and severity of hot flushes.

I want to share some feedback I received via email which actually inspired this blog! This type of improvement is not uncommon but it is important to remember that results can vary (only the best success stories are ever shared on the internet!)

"Thank you Christina! I know I only saw you last week but I'm already feeling so much better and sleeping better too. Those drops you gave me taste worse than the apple cider vinegar but I mixed them with a bit of juice like you said and they are easier to take now. I don't remember having any hot sweats last night, first time in a long time and I'm not feeling so tired in the afternoon any more. Thank you. See you in 2 weeks."

There are many over-the-counter products which you can purchase that claim to help with menopause, but the truth is, in all the women I have worked with, I have never used the same protocol more than once. Every woman experiences this change slightly differently which is why it is so important to seek personalised care. So even if you have already been to your local pharmacy or health food store and tried the recommended menopause supplements without success, it may just mean that require some personalised care.

Menopausal symptoms can last anywhere between 1-4 years (2 being the average) so if you are fed up and ready to take control of your health, contact me via email or on 0411 982 105 and start feeling better today!
