How to Naturally Manage Your Menopause Symptoms
Menopause. The word is synonymous with night sweats and hot flashes but the information seems to stop there. Although these are common symptoms, every woman experiences it in a unique way. The average age for menopause is 51, however most women will begin to feel a change physically, mentally and emotionally before they even begin to meet the definition of menopause.
Before officially entering menopause, estrogen levels decrease around the age of 35. Estrogen plays a large role in maintaining the health of nearly all tissue in the body, affecting bone density, cholesterol levels, skin quality, cardiovascular health and moods. Without sufficient estrogen, the body suffers from a hormonal imbalance. This period is known as peri-menopause and is characterized by hot flashes, night sweats, headaches, urinary frequency, vaginal dryness, irregular menstruation, mood swings, irritability, reduced libido and inability to concentrate.
Peri-menopause is not a direct path to menopause, as women often drift in and out of it over the course of several years. The severity and length of it has been linked to the amount of stress a woman has experienced over her lifetime and is happening at a younger age than ever before. To relieve symptoms, there are a variety of estrogen supplements and natural remedies available. Recent studies have found that natural supplements focused around isoflavones, such as Promensil, are highly effective.
Legumes, the source of isoflavones, are not all created equal in terms of beneficial power for women. There are more than 1,000 types of isoflavones in plants, however only four have been shown to benefit women going through menopause: genistein, daidzein, formononetin and biochanin A. Most legumes only carry a few of the isoflavones. Soy, which is often used in natural supplements, only contains daidzein and genistein. Promensil, which focuses around red clover, contains all four isoflavones as well ten to twenty times the quantity found in soy- the next richest source.
Red clovers have been used in medicine for years, treating everything from skin eczema to cancer. Because it contains all four isoflavones it is able to regulate the rapidly fluctuating hormones of menopause. High estrogen levels are suppressed and when levels are low the isoflavones mimic the estrogen your body naturally produces. Red clover is also a diuretic, helping the body rid itself of excess fluids, which is beneficial for women that experience water weight gain during menopause.
It is important to help treat the visible symptoms of peri-menopause to help with the transition to post menopause. Not only are you helping to relieve the discomfort, but also prevent long-term invisible symptoms. These symptoms, osteoporosis and cardiovascular disease, can severely affect the quality of a woman’s life. Promensil has been proven to support bone density and cardiovascular health during peri-menopause as well as offer supplements specifically for postmenopausal women.
The transition to post menopause can be a long and somewhat frustrating journey, but there is help and support out there. Women are more vocal about their experiences, and demand treatment that is safe, effective and natural. Promensil’s extensive testing has proven that natural supplements can be just that and without the side effects associated with hormone replacement therapy. Menopause treatment should be about making women feel like women, naturally.
