Have you had any relief from menopause symptoms without any hrt?

Collette

I am interested in learning about treatments without any type of hormones. I do not even want the bioidenticals. Please let me know if you have tried anything else for hot flashes, dry skin, dry mouth, irregular sleep patterns, stiffness, etc. Thank You very much.

Get enough calcium. A woman going through menopause needs 1000 mg to 1500 mg of calcium a day. Avoid excessive amounts of salt to reduce bloating associated with hormonal changes. More information and remedies at http://useinfo4.blogspot. com/

Ashlyn

well, Im going through the same problem as you. I don't have an answer for you but I would love to know the answer myself....pls keep it touch.

my mom is going through menapause and even though she's skinny she has trouble with about 3lbs of extra weight... her issues are salty foods b/c they cause water retention... just have smaller portions and more meals... watch the salt... my mom walks about 20 min every night and lifts some 5lb weights and does a few excersizes every other night and she manages to avoid weight gain.



Shandi

The same basic way as you would at any time in your life--less food, more exercise. However, you would eat even less food and do even more exercise as your metabolism slows down. I've found increased exercise to be the best for me. With the high price of gasoline, I moved closer to downtown and now walk to do most of my errands. Also, you have to watch that you don't try to handle emotional ups and downs with food.



Cinderella

Avoid sugars and simple carbs like white bread, white flour pasta, etc. Eat more protein. Have your hormones checked with blood tests.

After not having a menstrual period for five years menopause why would light bleeding occur?

Deon

I take a low dose hormone. My doctor says I don't have ovarian cancer because he cannot palpate my ovaries. I seemed to have a regular cycle, puffed up breasts, grouchiness, etc. Is this normal?



Jacqualine

Its pretty much a golden rule that post menpausal bleeding needs to be investigated properly.. the reason is to rule out endometrial or uterine cancer... not to worry u as its usually something else but it needs to be rule out as its the most dangerous cuase..apart from cervical cancer maybe..anyway u need a pap smear if u havent had one recently, a pelvic examination, a transvaginal ultrasound to check the lining of the uterus and a scope into ur uterus..go see a gynae please



Bonnie

your vagina is probably scared of that low dose hormone stuff because you have been taking it too long. im being serious.



Etta

CN gave you good advice. Hope you take it. Good Luck

Menopause?

Vikki

They say it is impossible for a woman to conceive once she has entered menopause. My friend was just told she is in menopause, and she is devastated beyond belief. She was trying to have a child. Have you ever heard of women conceiving after menopause?



Alberto

A friend of mine went into early menopause. She then conceived a year later!?!?!? Get a second opinion maybe. But definately get her to start on Chaste Tree Liquid. It can help to regulate hormones. Check out the HERB section of: http://www. marilynglenville. com/infertil…Chaste tree (aka agnus castus) is a very powerful herb & underestimated. Also try Cascade Cream - rub on tummy where ovaries are. I used both of these (Cascade for 6 months & Chaste tree for 12 months). They cured my pcos symptoms & I have a baby! I noticed them starting to work after only 3 months tho!! Once I stopped using them my cycle was always regular (before then I only ever got my cycle once or twice a year - if that).You could get both these items from a naturopath - otherwise try health shop or google them on the internet as I'm sure you can buy online. Let me know how she goes - don't lose hope!



France

Unfortunately once you are in menopause you stop ovulating and stop having period.... I don't know your friend's age but she could consider donor egg.... that if she is approved for the program base on the test they will recomend your friend to do. Good luck to your friend... I know how that feels from personal experience.... I am currently working with GIVF(www. givf. com) and I was matched with a donor in 2 months....

I am in fullblown menopause what is the best hormone replacement therepy?

Barrie

I just turned 48. I have hotflashes and nightsweats. I stay tired and have no energy. I have had tests and bloodwork done and Dr. said I am in fullblown menopause. I just want to know what to do to feel good again.



Maryann

You can try natural herb for menopause. Nowadays most of the women rather preferred on trying some herbal menopause treatment which greatly appear to them as softer options. The use of the herbal menopause treatment has been continually increasing due to the reason that most herbalists greatly prescribed herbal menopause treatments. These herbs for menopause do not pose any serious side effects or risks for those who use them.



Hilary

You might consider bhrt. Bioidentical hormones can reduce various symptoms before, during or after menopause. BHRT has the unique advantage over regular prescription medications. Bioidentical hormones are compounded, meaning, the prescription is made specifically for each individual patient to meet their unique needs. Natural progesterone cream is a common bioidentical hormone therapy for menopausal women. You might also consider other natural solutions such as changing your diet, exercise, and natural herbal remedies such as black cohosh, chaste tree, damiana, dandelion, dong quai, false unicorn root, ginkgo, ginseng, licorice, red clover, and sage.



Arlene

This website is awesome. You go to it then in the top right hand you will see a search engine. Type in hormone replacement and you will get gads of information and also actual womens posts about what worked and didnt work for them> You can go to forums and ask questions and read answers. Its a great site for women and womens issues. http://www. hystersisters. com/Good luck by the way with your body....and hope you find peace and the craziness ends for you.

In the latest study that exonerates menopause as a cause of impairing the ability to recall, Taiwanese researchers compared the memory of hundreds of women before they had any menopausal symptoms to their memory as they entered menopause.

The women were between the ages of 40 and 54. None of them had had a hysterectomy, and none took hormone replacement therapy during the study.

All took five cognitive tests designed to assess their memory and cognitive skills at the start of the study, and then again 18 months later.

During the study period, 23 percent of the women began to have symptoms of menopause.

The researchers then compared the memory of the women who had entered menopause to those who had not, and found very little difference. In four of the five tests, there were no statistically significant differences in the two groups of women.

Why does god allow sex between a husband and wife after the menopause?

Rick

...and in a marriage where the couple is sterile, if homosexual sex is forbidden due to the impossibility of reproduction?



Ricarda

sexual union as an expression of love and intimacy between two people who are attracted and devoted to each other is a beautiful thing. it does not matter if you are homosexual, sterile or post - menopausal. Jesus command is "love one another as i have loved you".i interpret Christ's teaching as to love one another - with the Divine Love which he demonstrated. i.e. if you act with love and respect for the other person - you can't go wrong.



Pete

Marriage somehow allows God to not mind it, hence prop 8



Cassie

its a way of building love and trust in the couple even when there are no children,



Daron

actually, the God of K-Y does that. and the second question, it's usually the the God of i can't say for fear of another VN.



Cayla

because of the insatiable sexual/carnal satisfaction!!! ya feel me huh!? uhhmm!!



Andreas

Marital sex has another purpose beside procreation, it is the expression of true love.



Racquel

Do you honestly think god allows or disallows?



Hershel

It seems these behaviours are not objected to by a god that may seem disinterested in that. Or perhaps in everything!



Juliann

The question is obviously sarcastic.
