So many women I work with are hitting that premenopausal or menopausal time in their lives and are suffering with many complaints:
Weight gain, especially around the belly.
Low energy
Sleep issues
Anxiety and depression
Hot flashes
Night sweats
Low sex drive
Vaginal dryness
Lower immune function
Digestive dysfunction
Skin problems
Memory issues
Hair loss
Stiff joints
Rapid heart beat
You are considered in full menopause when you have not had a period in over a year.
There is help! Most of these are related to a drop off in progesterone, testosterone and estrogen and can be fixed naturally.
At our office we test the hormone levels with a saliva test and then determine what is needed to help balance out the levels. We use all natural bio identical plant based hormones to increase the levels that are low.
Here are some tips that will help as well:
Eat lots of protein
Reduce sugars
Exercise
Drink lots of water
Get good sleep
Take a B complex
Reduce stress
Take 400mg of mag glycinate at bed
Take Vit D
It is a time that can be very difficult for women, so it is a good time to slow down and take care of yourself. A simple saliva test can help you get back on track and reduce these symptoms, once we determine what is low and fix it. You do not need to suffer with these symptoms!
