At puberty ovulation starts; eggs are released by the ovaries each month for the purpose of conception. As the years go by the amount of eggs gradually decline until menopause, when the ovaries shut down and stop producing estrogen and progesterone— the two main female sex hormones. Menopause usually happens naturally as women age, but it can occur for other reasons, such as the removal of both ovaries, or subsequent to radiation or chemotherapy.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eOnce a woman reaches menopause and the ovaries are in retirement, the adrenal glands, which supply some sex hormones throughout life, become the primary supplier. Women who have poor adrenal function, which can be caused by chronic stress, poor diet, lack of sleep, or excessive caffeine, are not able to provide adequate hormone amounts, and may have more severe menopausal symptoms. Estrogen can also be produced in the fat cells from angrogens. This is why obese women often experience fewer symptoms of estrogen deficiency than thin women.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMy doctor suggested I use Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) but I don’t like the idea of being on a medication with a long list of side effects.

Fortunately, there are natural ingredients like black cohosh that can help to alleviate the symptoms of menopause without the potential side effects associated with traditional HRT.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs there an age post-menopause at which you should stop taking HRT?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eEveryone’s situation is different. Generally speaking, we recommend that HRT be used as the lowest dose possible for the shortest period of time to manage menopausal symptoms.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eI am 47 years old and my friend recently told me that my migraines, allergies, and insomnia could be a sign that I am in menopause. Is that true?\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eAbout 70% of women who are in the early stages of menopause are affected by multiple symptoms, even if they still have their period. While the most commonly talked about symptoms of menopause include hot flashes and night sweats, many women experience lesser-known symptoms like mood swings, mood-related disorders, anxiety, loss of libido, vaginal dryness, weight gain, bloating, joint pain, and yes…migraines, insomnia and allergies. There are 34 possible symptoms in all!\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eI have read that women who are in menopause are more susceptible to osteoporosis — should I be concerned?\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eYes. Not enough women are aware that a potential consequence of menopause is osteoporosis. Estrogen, a key hormone that aids the process of calcium absorption into the bones, drops off during menopause. This causes a loss of bone density, which leaves women more susceptible to breaks and fractures. For women 45 years of age and over, osteoporosis accounts for more days spent in hospital than many other diseases including diabetes, myocardial infarction and breast cancer. \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow soon should I expect to feel relief?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eSome women report almost immediate relief from their symptoms. Since every woman’s symptoms, and the severity of those symptoms are different, it’s more common to experience relief within 30 days. femMED products are formulated to gently balance your hormones and for some women this takes time.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eIf I am currently taking Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) can I also take Menopause Relief?\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eMenopause Relief is generally not recommended for use with HRT, unless under the recommendation and supervision of your health care provider. Abruptly stopping HRT can cause a worsening of menopausal symptoms, such as hot flashes. Some practitioners advise that HRT be weaned off gradually while another therapy is initiated. Again, it is best to work with your healthcare provider on this.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I take Menopause Relief in conjunction with Hormonal Balance?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eYes. Menopause Relief and Hormonal Balance work well in harmony and can be taken together if you are experiencing severe menopause symptoms that have not been sufficiently reduced using Menopause Relief on its own. Menopause Relief helps alleviate the most common symptoms of menopause such as hot flashes, night sweats and mood swings.

Black cohosh does not appear to have estrogenic activity and thus may be safe for women with a personal or family history of breast cancer.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eThe safety of using black cohosh in women who have had breast cancer has been evaluated in several test tube, animal and recently a human study.
