Even though menopause is a perfectly natural stage in every woman’s life, it’s still often accompanied by various symptoms that can interfere with daily activities. In order to have a comfortable menopausal experience, we have hand-picked three natural remedies, as well as some good habits that you can easily adopt into your life.
What’s menopause?
Menopause is an inevitable part of every woman’s life, marking the end of the reproductive years and typically happening around 50 years of age. From a medical standpoint, menopause is generally diagnosed when a woman has gone without a period for 12 consecutive months.
During menopause, the ovaries stop producing sex hormones estrogen and progesterone. This sharp decline in hormones can cause various symptoms that can last for several years. Some women may only experience the loss of their menstrual cycle, whereas others may experience various other symptoms.
Below is a list of some of the most common symptoms:
– hot flashes
– dry skin and mucous membranes
– sleep disorders
– irritability
– decreased libido
– weight gain
According to the Association of Obstetricians and Gynecologists of Quebec, 60% to 80% of women experience one or more menopause-related symptoms in addition to the loss of their menstrual cycle. These symptoms frequently cause discomfort in everyday life.
As a matter of fact, according to a study done by INSERM (National Institute for Health and Medical Research), between 20% and 25% of menopausal women complain of suffering from symptoms that affect the quality of their lives.
Fortunately, even though menopause can’t be avoided, there are ways to alleviate the symptoms, so that you can have a comfortable and natural experience!
