Natural Treatment for Menopause Symptoms



Menopause occurs in all women over the age of 45.
In most cases, it indicates the beginning of a period that lasts from two years to a decade.

At the physiological level, menopause is accompanied by a large number of hormonal changes in a woman's body, after the ovaries have stopped producing eggs and secreting female sex hormones.
Some of the hormonal changes are short-lived and some are long-term.

Short-term symptoms that afflict a woman's body during menopause will be manifested by hot flashes accompanied by hyperhidrosis, accelerated pulse, and vaginal dryness.
More symptoms may be decreased libido, the appearance of vaginal bleeding, urinary disorders, nervousness, and also depression.
These symptoms last from a few weeks to several months, depending on the general state of health of each woman.

Natural Treatment for Menopause Symptoms

Adopt a diet rich in phystoestrogens



To alleviate the effects of menopause and adopt a healthy lifestyle, a diet rich in phytoestrogens is recommended.
These are also found in soy products, flaxseed, fennel, celery, parsley, nuts, whole grains, legumes, apples, alfalfa and carrots.

High intake of phytoestrogens may explain why in cultures where nutrition is primarily from the plant world, hot flashes and other symptoms are less common.
The recommendation is for natural soy products such as tofu, soy milk, reddish, miso, tampa and soybeans, and not for processed soy products (soy protein used for plant schnitzel or phytoestrogen pills).

Do Sports to Reduce Hot Flashes



Movement reduces hot flashes, the risk of osteoporotic fractures and the risk of heart disease.
Also, exercise significantly reduces (over 3%) the risk of developing breast cancer and other hormone-dependent cancers, lowers blood pressure, helps balance diabetes, and improves mood and self-esteem. In addition, exercise also helps improve sexual desire and function.

Herbal Medicine as a Treatment for the Menopause Sysmptoms

Black cohosh is one of the most famous herbs for treating menopause, and perhaps the most researched plant in the world in the field of phytoestrogen treatment.

This herb is a perennial plant common in the forests and plains of North America.
Black cohosh was very common among North American natives and was used for medical treatment of various diseases including fever, urinary tract problems, arthritis, restlessness and depression.

The use of black cohosh by menopausal women has shown efficacy in several studies in relieving the frequency and intensity of hot flashes, in parallel with improving other symptoms such as fatigue, sleep problems, tendency to anxiety and more.
