Don't let menopause be your nightmare! You can be healthy, happy and beautiful during menopause with methods that are friendly to your nature!

If we say that the average age of menstruation is 50, and if we consider that irregularities and complaints begin 4-6 years before this, a woman with an average lifespan spends 30-35 years with complaints of menopause and menopause. For this reason, menopause is one of the issues that women are most interested in.

• Am I too young to be going through menopause?

Research says the average age of menopause is around 50. But menopausal transition symptoms begin 4-6 years before the last menstrual period. However, one percent of women experience menopause before the age of 40, while one in a thousand reaches menopause before the age of 30. However, in recent years, due to the increasing epidemic of autoimmunity, we are encountering early menopause more and more.

• What will happen to me during menopause?

Some women may have no complaints at all. However, there may be disturbing findings in 80% of cases. The reason is the decrease in estrogen and progesterone hormones secreted from the ovaries. The most common complaints we encounter are hot flushes and sweating. But other than that, there are many symptoms such as irregular vaginal bleeding, sleep disorders, easy weight gain, vaginal dryness, lack of sexual reluctance, urinary incontinence, depression, increased skin wrinkles, memory problems, increased joint and muscle pain. Because female hormones estrogen and progesterone do not only affect the uterus, ovaries and vagina. It has functions in almost the entire human body, from the brain to the bones, from the heart to our veins and intestines.

• Okay, but when will these menopausal complaints end?

Hot flashes and night sweats, which are the most common complaints, usually disappear within 6 months to 2 years. Because these complaints are the result of fluctuations in hormones before they end. But unfortunately, complaints related to low hormone levels often continue to increase. If we look at what these are; Tendency to depression, brain fog, mood swings, vaginal dryness, lack of sexual reluctance, urinary incontinence, easy weight gain, loss of skin elasticity, sleep disorders are the first things that come to mind. To cope with these complaints, using many supports such as bioequivalent hormone use, homeopathy, acupuncture, vaginal radiofrequency, phytotherapy and making touches to our lifestyle that will make us healthier will offer us the chance to live a happier, healthier, younger life.

• Do I still need contraception?

If you have not had your period for more than a year, you do not need to take protection from now on. However, during the transition to menopause, when menstrual cycles become irregular, there is a rare risk of developing boat rash. Be careful.

• Why do my breasts become tender and painful during menopause?

Breast tissue is very sensitive to changes in hormone levels. For this reason, there is a period of increased sensitivity and pain during the menopause period. If we do not receive any treatment, this problem will disappear when the hormones are almost gone; if we receive treatment, this problem will disappear when the hormones are balanced to the extent we need.

• My sleep has been disturbed since my periods stopped, why?

Menopause disrupts sleep quality through multiple mechanisms. First, as we get older, we tend to have less deep sleep and less sleep time. Secondly, hot flashes and night sweats disrupt our sleep. You may need to change your clothes and sheets at night. Third, the decrease in hormones increases our susceptibility to depression and anxiety. This is the enemy of quality sleep. There is a solution, don't worry.

• Since my menstrual balance has been disrupted, I have not been able to control my weight. Even though I am careful, my belly circumference is constantly increasing. Why?

Disruption of hormone balance also disrupts your metabolic balance and speed. Additionally, poor sleep and mood swings are factors that promote weight gain. In addition, when decreasing muscle mass and lower metabolic rate come into play with increasing age, belly circumference increases rapidly. Are you desperate? Of course not. Balancing hormones with natural forms, metabolism-balancing diets, and regular exercises that will protect our bone tissue are the first steps towards enlightenment. In addition, the contributions of natural methods such as homeopathy, acupuncture and phytotherapy are endless.

• I started having urinary incontinence, is there a solution?

Incontinence during menopause affects women's social lives very negatively. It makes them not even want to go out. Many women may experience this complaint as a result of the weakening and loosening of the pelvic floor muscles and bladder surrounding tissues as a result of the decrease in hormones. We can use many methods other than surgery in treatment. We get very good results with bioequivalent hormone treatments, phytotherapy, homeopathy and vaginal radiofrequency methods. Urinary incontinence is a treatable condition, you know.

• Will my vaginal dryness and lack of sexual desire go away?

Too low estrogen levels during menopause negatively affects the elasticity and secretion properties of the vagina. The decrease in estrogen and testosterone levels reduces sexual desire. It is very easy to solve these problems by replacing these deficiencies with bioequivalent hormone forms. For those who say they do not use hormones, we get very good results naturally with homeopathy, phytotherapy, acupuncture and vaginal radiofrequency methods.

• Do depression, anxiety and fear of death increase in the post-menopausal period?

Yes. The scientific explanation for this situation is that the decrease in estrogen levels indirectly decreases the levels of serotonin, our happiness hormone. Declining serotonin levels cause us to face people who are more prone to depression and anxious. It is possible to get relief from many issues, from weight to skin quality to mood improvement, by getting your menopause treated before you drown in tons of medications. Always aiming to solve the root cause is a must for treatment.

• During the menopausal period, my skin became dry, flaky and itchy, and its elasticity decreased significantly. Won't it get better?

As the estrogen hormone decreases, the amount of collagen produced in our skin gradually decreases. Thinning, drying, flaking and sometimes itching occur on the skin. When collagen decreases, there is a loss of elasticity. These losses can be balanced with nutrition, lifestyle and bioequivalent hormones that will also support intestinal health. Additionally, cosmetic acupuncture and PRP work perfectly as natural methods to support the skin. A real skin healing gives the most effective results if it involves your intestines, your soul and your skin together.
