Menopause and Peri-Menopause – there is Relief!
October 15, 2011
Menopause is described as no menstrual cycle for a year, whereas peri-menopause is the beginning of menopause when the cycles start to fluctuate and changes start to occur.
Symptoms of these hormonal changes in life are:
• Hot flashes
• Night sweats
• Sleep problems
• Irritability, moodiness
• Headaches
• Perspiration
• Low libido
There are several herbs that help for symptoms with peri-menopause and menopause. Relief is achieved by balancing and toning the hormonal system. Herbs such as vitex (chasteberry) and dong quai (Chinese angelica) help balance the pituitary gland, black cohosh and red clover blossoms contain plant hormones that can act as herbal hormone therapy, all are very useful. Herbal formulas are a great way of helping all menopausal issues. Also, chlorophyll will give you a daily, mild, internal cleanse, which may help reduce hot-flashes.
This is a stage of life where you need to take extra care of our health – eat healthy, moderate exercise, and do the things you enjoy.
