Menopause

Each year, about 1.3 million women enter menopause, the season of life when their monthly periods cease. This normal transition, which happens to every menstruating woman, typically occurs in a woman’s late 40s or early 50s. 

In the period before menopause, she may experience changes in her cycle and health. This is known as perimenopause and is associated with declining levels of hormones like estrogen and progesterone. Once a woman has not had a period for a year, she is considered postmenopausal.

During perimenopause, menopause, and postmenopause, women may experience various changes in their body. A quarter of all women will experience hot flashes at some point. Other common menopausal symptoms include weight gain, thinning hair, irregular periods, insomnia, and vaginal dryness. and night sweats. Women may also experience emotional symptoms such as anxiety, depression, or irritability. After menopause, many women will also start to experience bone loss (osteoporosis). 

Over 60% of women with menopause symptoms report that they are severe enough to interfere with their quality of life. As a result of these changes, many women will resort to hormone replacement therapy, taking synthetic hormones to try to control these symptoms. Unfortunately, these drugs may produce many harmful side effects.

Fortunately, there are natural ways that women can make this major life transition easier. Changes in diet, herbs, and supplements can all help to reduce symptoms and keep a woman healthy through perimenopause and after menopause. We’ll cover natural ways to help women through this change of life in this Sunshine Sharing Hour.
