The Effects of Menopause on a Woman’s Body
Monday, February 1st, 2016

One of the biggest concerns most women are afraid to face is aging, and although both sexes share some of the same signs as they get older (e.g. wrinkles, liver spots, and silver hair), women will find this stage of their lives more difficult to handle because, at a certain age, they will have to go through menopause.
From the very moment girls receive their period, their journey into womanhood begins. Expecting to bleed at least once every month, taking care of their body – both physically and mentally – will enable them to understand and live with this natural biological occurrence. After several menstrual cramps, cravings, and mood swings later, a woman’s menstruation cycle will have to come to a close. However, this one last hurrah is not a celebratory occasion because when a woman enters her menopausal stage, she will have to go through a series of uncomfortable situations before she can say that she is scot-free from menstruation.

What is Menopause?

Depending on a woman’s genetic code, menopause can occur between 31 to 65 years of age. It is defined as the permanent shutdown of the ovaries, because the body is no longer receiving the same amount of estrogen and progesterone it needs. The deterioration of bodily functions is only natural, and should not become a surprise, but it does not mean that the human body will easily adapt to these changes. This is the time wherein women will need to prepare themselves because the road to the end of menopause is not that easy.

Its Symptoms and Effects

Usually, the first symptom menopausal women will encounter is the irregular flow of their period, which will eventually come to a full stop. After that, an array of other menopausal symptoms will soon follow suit. Not all of these symptoms, however, will be experienced by every woman, some of the most common cases include:

  • Hot Flashes
  • Mood Swings and Irritability
  • PMS
  • Night Sweats
  • Headache
  • Breast Tenderness
  • Vaginal Atrophy

The Benefits of Getting Treatment

Since the body needs to have a constant supply of well-balanced hormones in order to function, women who are going through menopause will find it difficult to perform during this shift and experience alarming changes. Their weight will constantly fluctuate, they can have fits of blind rage – without having any concrete reason, plummet into a depressive mood, suddenly burst into tears, and so on. During this delicate stage, women need to have some sort of support to get them through menopause. Luckily, in this day and age, there are numerous natural menopausal treatments they can choose to keep the symptoms in a more manageable state. Each treatment grade or plan is fashioned to the woman’s lifestyle and menopausal level, and once women receive the treatment, it will be easier for them to go through the negative aspects of menopause, because it will help them keep their hormones in check.

Menopause is part of being human and women should not fear it. Yes, it is true that during this stage, there are numerous symptoms that can hinder a woman from attaining prime comfort levels. However, by knowing its symptoms, effects, and the fact that there are treatments available to help them get through this arduous time, women will be able to come out of menopause stronger than ever before.
