Menopause is a unique experience for every woman. It is
the ending of a woman's monthly menstrual periods and ovulation. It also
signals other changes to the body and mind, brought on in part because the body
begins producing lesser amounts of the hormones oestrogen and progesterone
(among others).
Menopause is not a disease. It is a natural process
in a woman's life. How a woman views this time of her life can have a lot to do
with how frequent and severe her symptoms are. If menopause is viewed as the
end of youth and sexuality, this time will be much more difficult than if it is
viewed as the next, natural phase of life, a time of greater freedom,
liberation from the restrictions of youth.
Although menopause is one of the
important physical milestones in a woman's life, many women lack concrete
information about what is taking place and what are their options. With a
proper diet, individualised herbs according to the symptoms and current state
of health, nutritional supplements, exercise and simple lifestyle changes, most
of the unpleasant side effects of menopause can be minimized to a great extent.
With this knowledge and the support of one our professional naturopaths you can
step forward with grace and embrace it!
