There have been found two remedies for menopause.
The first is the conventional method of HRT- Hormone Replacement Therapy, also known as Estrogen Replacement Therapy. The side-effects of such therapy include: Nausea, headaches, fluid retention, weight gain, breast tenderness, spotting, and darkening of the skin.
Recent studies have shown that this type of therapy should only be used for a short period of time because it increases the chances of cancer.
The second form of treatment is the use of Phytoestrogens. These are naturally occurring compounds obtained by plant that have estrogenic properties. These phytoestrogens have the same chemical structure to estrogen and bind to receptors, acting like hormone regulators. Because they are used as a group, these phytoestrogens display many of the same properties of the natural production of estrogen. They also boost the production of estrogen even with a minute dose. They can also have the power to lesson the effect of too much estrogen in the body, and have an anti bacterial/anti fungal property to reverse the effects of viruses.
A very powerful medium in using natural remedies for menopause is to use a progesterone cream. This cream will help restore the natural hormone balances and relieve the many unpleasant symptoms of menopause.
Another very powerful medium in using natural remedies for menopause is the use of meditation. Meditation can take many forms, such as walking or sitting quietly focusing your breathing on one specific focus. This type of relaxation helps decrease anxiety, and panic attacks.
Diet, exercise, the use of Phytoestrogens, Acidophilous, Bifidus, Vitamin, supplements, and avoiding foods raised with chemicals are all ways to relieve symptoms naturally.
It is known that 80 percent of women going through menopause would rather find a natural way to relieve the symptoms. Managing mood swings, vaginal dryness, lack of desire or libido, stress, insomnia can all be managed through natural medicine. The only set back to using the natural medicine instead of HRT- Hormone Replacement Therapy, is that it takes longer for the natural remedy show its effects but are still safer when dealing with the side effects of HRT.
The use of vitamins which include Vitamin E, B, K, and C are all very useful natural remedies. The use of the B, K, and C help the body absorb the E vitamin. Vitamin E helps with vaginal dryness, the B vitamin helps with the fatigue and tiredness, Vitamin K helps keep the bones strong, and reduces the chance of having osteoporosis, the Vitamin C helps the body’s immune system in fighting off viruses.
Since menopause is a long, slow process, it usually begins when a woman hits the age around forty when periods begin to lessen, and be less regular. The decrease in estrogen and progesterone cause changes to your cycle. These hormones are needed to keep the vagina and uterus healthy. Estrogen keeps the bones healthy, and it also helps keep cholesterol levels in the body healthy.
Since the more natural remedy gives you more choices in your overall health, it is more desired than HRT. Be sure to let your physician know any and all natural remedies you are using in the management of your menopause as there could be dangerous interactions with prescription medicine.
