Women's Day Special - Conquering Menopause with Dietary Solutions"

During menopause, several hormones undergo significant changes:

1. Estrogen: Levels of estrogen decline during menopause, leading to various symptoms such as hot flashes, mood swings, and vaginal dryness.

2. Progesterone: Production of progesterone also decreases, which can contribute to irregular menstrual cycles and other menopausal symptoms.

3. FSH and LH levels increase during menopause .

4.Testosterone: Although primarily known as a male hormone, testosterone also decreases during menopause, potentially impacting libido and energy levels.

Common health issues experienced by pre-menopausal and menopausal women include:

1. Hot flashes: Sudden feelings of warmth, often accompanied by sweating and flushing.

2. Night sweats: Similar to hot flashes but occurring during sleep, leading to disrupted sleep patterns.

3. Irregular menstrual cycles: Changes in menstrual frequency, duration, and intensity leading up to menopause.

4. Mood swings: Fluctuations in mood, including irritability, anxiety, and depression.

5. Insomnia: Difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep, often due to hormonal fluctuations and night sweats.

6. Osteoporosis: Decreased bone density and increased risk of fractures due to hormonal changes and aging.

7. Cardiovascular disease: Increased risk of heart disease and stroke due to changes in lipid levels and decreased estrogen levels.

8. Weight gain: Changes in metabolism and hormonal fluctuations can lead to weight gain, particularly around the abdomen.

Important nutrients for women during menopause to ease symptoms include:

1. Calcium: Essential for bone health and preventing osteoporosis.

E.g. a- Almonds

b- Broccoli

2. Vitamin D: Helps with calcium absorption and supports bone health.

E.g. a- Eggs

b- Fish Oil

3. Omega-3 fatty acids: Reduce inflammation and support heart health.

4. Magnesium: Important for bone health, muscle function, and energy production.
