What to take during menopause?

Let's talk about menopause first

Menopause is a natural phase in a woman's life that, despite being inevitable, is surrounded by numerous myths and misinformation . This phenomenon not only generates anxiety, but can also lead to making decisions about your health based on incorrect information.

Some of the most widespread myths are that menopause always causes significant weight gain or that it marks the end of sexual life. Although hormonal changes can influence metabolism, not all women experience the same symptoms. It is essential to follow a healthy lifestyle to live a less aggressive menopause and improve the quality of life. If you want to know the best lifestyle habits for you at this stage, you can take our test here.

Lack of accurate information can lead women to accept uncomfortable symptoms as inevitable, without seeking medical help . They may also resort to unproven treatments or dangerous hormone therapies, putting their health at risk.

What are the stages of menopause?

This natural process has three stages: premenopause, perimenopause and postmenopause. Each of these phases has its own characteristics and challenges.

Premenopause

This is the period preceding menopause, when women still have regular menstrual cycles. During this stage, hormone levels begin to fluctuate, but the changes are generally subtle and many women do not experience significant symptoms at this stage.

Perimenopause

It is the transition to menopause and can begin several years before the last menstrual period; during this phase, estrogen and progesterone levels fluctuate significantly, which can cause a variety of symptoms: irregular menstrual cycles , hot flashes and night sweats , mood swings , sleep problems . This phase can last from four to ten years and ends one year after the last menstrual period.

Postmenopause

It begins one year after the last menstrual period. During this phase, hormone levels stabilize at low levels, and many of the symptoms of perimenopause begin to subside. However, the drop in estrogen can increase the risk of certain health problems, such as osteoporosis, cardiovascular disease, or urogenital problems .
