Natural Remedies For Menopause Can
Help...
There are many things a woman with menopause symptoms
can do without resorting to drugs; and for many women, they
find the natural methods described on this site are sufficient
for them to avoid using drugs for menopause
symptoms (primarily HRT, called ERT in America) at
all.
These approaches to menopause symptoms include herbal
remedies - as well as exercise, diet and other remedies.
As part of your research, please see the articles we have published on
this site.
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, appropriate herbal
remedies - 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!
