Menopause is a natural shift in a woman’s hormones that can come with significant changes. Many women experience discomfort, physical and psychological symptoms, as they enter menopause. Understanding the root cause and being aware of what to expect can help ease your transition into this new life stage.
The primary symptom of menopause is the hormonal changes that begin when ovulation stops and estrogen production declines dramatically. The decrease in estrogen triggers several physiological processes that characterize menopause: hot flashes, night sweats, insomnia, irregular periods, vaginal dryness, and urinary issues. It also increases the risk of osteoporosis due to calcium absorption becoming more difficult as levels fluctuate or decline. Fertility levels also tend to drop significantly during menopause.
Most women report feeling moody or irritable during menopause due to hormone fluctuations. Lowered levels of serotonin are linked to depressive episodes and increased stress sensitivity experienced by many women during this time. Anxiety can accompany menopause as well. All these emotional sea-changes can be managed through lifestyle adjustments such as exercise or relaxation techniques like yoga or mindfulness mediation.
Nutrition plays an especially important role for women going through menopause because it helps balance hormones naturally and supports overall health at the same time. Foods containing phytoestrogens (plant compounds) like flaxseed, soybeans, nuts and some fruits may help relieve hot flashes associated with menopausal changes while remaining low-calorie sources of energy support weight management goals many women have throughout their lives regardless of age. Supplements with at least 600 IU of Calcium daily combined with regular exercise will ensure adequate bone health prevent Osteopenia—a precursor to Osteoperosis—which can result from decreased estrogen levels during this transition period in a woman's life.
