Menopause – one condition, different experiences

Menopause – one condition, different experiences

Menopause

Maya, Priti, Debina, Anita, all four were suffering from the same condition, yet their experiences were different. This is because menopause has a surprisingly wide range of signs and symptoms. For some women, it’s easy and comfortable. For others, it doesn’t go so smoothly. Certain variations in a woman’s hormone levels profoundly influence her health during and after menopause.

Here are a few examples:

Maya was a 53-year-old woman who had always enjoyed good health.

Active and fit, she always took an interest in her health but menopause symptoms took her by surprise. “I feel so dull and lifeless now,” she told the doctor. She noted that her libido had completely disappeared. Physically, she felt more fatigued than she had in previous years, and the emotional changes were much harder on her.

Priti was 49-years-old when she came to see us

For 2 years prior to her visit, Priti’s periods had been increasingly irregular and recently had stopped altogether. Along with feeling angry and agitated, Priti was having frequent migraine headaches. She also had some trouble with acne and oily skin.

Debina, a 57-year-old patient, had an extremely uncomfortable array of menopause symptoms, including vaginal dryness, fatigue, thinning skin, memory problems, decreased libido, breast tenderness, and insomnia. Her symptoms had been getting worse every year.

Then there was Anita. She had a hysterectomy years prior, but her ovaries were still intact. She didn’t have vaginal dryness, acne, or oily skin, nor did she complain of irritability, anxiety, or depression. Her primary concern was fatigue and tiredness which she described as “a loss of vim and vigor.” She had been to other doctors who checked her hormones and said they were fine and they couldn’t find any solution to her problem. Anita was not willing to accept the symptoms as part of growing old, “I’m only 46-years-old, so it’s early for menopause. I want to fix this but don’t know how..” Little did she know that her hysterectomy will lead to menopause at a much earlier age!

Menopause treatment – one size doesn’t fit all

There is no one-size-fits-all treatment for menopause. And if you consider a treatment that will change your hormonal levels, you should be aware that balance is the key to feeling well. There are several treatments that might work to balance your hormones. But if you are looking for a natural and safe solution, you can try menopause treatment in homeopathy.

Menopause treatment in homeopathy

Homeopathy is a holistic system of medicine. It not only addresses the physical symptoms of menopause but also looks after the person as a whole and prescribes an individual treatment. It also takes care of your general well-being and emotional health. For example, if a woman is suffering from thyroid disorder and reaching the menopause age, homeopathy will offer constituent medicine for both the problems thereby treating your condition from the root and giving you a long-lasting result.

Besides taking menopause treatment, it is very necessary to make few lifestyle changes such as eating a healthy diet, eliminating caffeine and alcohol, reducing sugar and salt intake, regular exercise, curb smoking and taking vitamin supplements to increase your chances of recovery from the condition earlier.
