You must determine the approaches for menopause which suit you and then you can develop your own approach to managing menopause symptoms. On this site we have provided information about approaches which have worked for many women over time. Read about them and choose the ones to try which you feel might address your own menopause symptoms.

A Wholistic Approach

Certainly, a wholistic approach is best. There is no 'magic bullet' for menopause. The hormone system is complicated and a small change in one hormone can have complex ramifications. This is why trying to add chemical hormone is fraught with danger. Much better to nurture the body, provide it with good 'raw material' - food, herbs - and let it create its own balance.

In other words, as a menopausal woman you will do best if you:

• Have the best menopausal diet
• Have a healthy and sufficient exercise regime during menopause
• Have a good work/life balance, and
• Find supplements - such as herbal remedies - which suit you.

This is really just a matter of developing a healthy lifestyle in general - which is good for anyone whether in the menopause or not. However, at menopause time having some poor lifestyle habits might bring on unpleasant symptoms because of the extra problem of the hormones trying to establish a new equilibrium as their levels naturally change. Therefore, good life habits can be even more crucial at menopause time.  

Develop your own overall method, using primarily or exclusively natural methods - diet, exercise, herbs - and follow it consistently. Review regularly - say every month. As you try each element for several months, monitor its success. If it helps - continue it; if not, try something else. Consistantly work on devising your own programme of good health during menopause.

Be proactive about choosing the approaches which suit you and you will get the most from alternative healthcare, or natural remedies. This area of natural therapies has a huge amount to offer to women who are in, or approaching, the menopause.

Ideally, of course, consult with a therapist in natural therapy, one who has experience helping women at menopause time. Just phone and ask a therapist you are thinking of consulting; a good therapist will have no problem telling you the extent of their experience. If they have a problem with your questions, there are plenty more about.

We hope the information presented on this site will help you to discover the methods which suits you best. Many women have benefited from using herbs, diet and exercise to help the menopause. We hope you are one of these!
