A woman’s health is special because her hormone levels change over the years, and there are various fluctuations and reductions in hormones that lead to changes in her health.
Perimenopause is the period that begins before menopause and can last for several years. Each woman’s perimenopause and menopause manifest and last differently. During this period, women often experience a variety of physical and emotional changes, such as hot flashes, mood swings, sleep disturbances, difficulty concentrating (‘brain fog’), weight gain even though we eat the same amount, dryness of the skin and mucous membranes, painful sexual intercourse, reduced libido, increased urinary tract infections and many other symptoms that are often not even related to the hormonal changes in the body.
Although this period is unavoidable for every woman, it should not reduce the quality of life. Research has shown that the decline in oestrogen with age increases the risk of stroke, heart attack (due to its effect on the cardiovascular system), osteoporosis (thinning of the bones) and even Alzheimer’s disease.
Experts stress that information about perimenopause and menopause can be contradictory, so it is important to look for reliable and evidence-based sources and to address each woman’s concerns individually.
Science has already shown that healthy lifestyle choices such as sufficient and quality sleep, adapted exercise, proper nutrition, yoga, meditation, certain supplements and the elimination of harmful habits can significantly improve well-being and in some cases reduce or even eliminate symptoms, but they are not always sufficient.
