about Menopause

The average age of menopause in Australian women is 51 years. Perimenopause typically lasts up to 10 years before menopause (cease of menstruation). During perimenopause and after menopause, woman may experience diverse symptoms. Symptoms include hot flushes, fatigue, sore muscles and joints, depression, irritability, low libido and more!

As a woman transitions through the stages of menopause they will encounter different symptoms at different times of transition. Evidence so far shows that having optimum nutrition and supplementation along with adapting lifestyle changes can be most effective in alleviating symptoms and shortening their duration.

Women’s lifestyles over the decades have increased inflammation in the body, therefore it is important to address reducing inflammation to reduce severity of symptoms and other menopause related conditions.

All women require a comprehensive assessment of their current health and risks for future disease, appropriate screening, and promotion of a healthy lifestyle.

The prevalence of the following conditions developing in Menopausal women are:

~ hypertension -50%

~ osteoporosis - 30%

~ depression - 10%
