Menopause
Fight Back Against Menopause
Hot flashes, headaches, weight gain, and low libido – these are just some of the symptoms women will experience during menopause. Menopause can be particularly frustrating because it looks different for every woman. Some might struggle with crushing brain fog while others might complain about intimacy issues with their partner.Â
Dr. Dae knows that living with menopause can be challenging. You lead a busy life and don’t have time to manage your symptoms on a daily basis. You deserve to feel your very best. You deserve to feel vibrant and energetic. Instead of taking over-the-counter pain killers or trying fad diets you found on the internet, you should come to Healthy Daes for naturopathic medicine treatment.
Naturopathic medicine at Healthy Daes can provide surprisingly effective treatment for menopause. Naturopathic medicine is a holistic approach to healthcare that focuses on identifying the underlying causes of disease and addressing them through personalized, whole-body care. As we mentioned, every woman responds to menopause differently. That means you need a holistic, personalized treatment plan that works with your unique body.Â
Symptoms of Menopause
Menopause is diagnosed when a woman has gone without a menstrual period for 12 consecutive months. It typically occurs between the ages of 45 and 55, although it can occur earlier or later. If you notice you’re experiencing these symptoms more frequently, come to Healthy Daes for menopause treatment.
- Hot flashes
- Night sweats
- Irregular periods
- Vaginal dryness
- Insomnia
- Mood swings
- Fatigue
- Weight gain
- Decreased libido
- Dry skin and hair
- Joint pain
- Headaches
- Difficulty concentrating or remembering things
- Urinary incontinence or frequent urination
- Anxiety or depression
However, these symptoms could be caused by another underlying condition. Or your menopause could be exacerbating something else going on underneath the surface. At Healthy Daes, we will test to make sure we’re treating the true root cause of your symptoms. We might just uncover an issue that’s been plaguing you for years!
Naturopathic Medicine Treatments for Menopause
Dr. Dae is going to work with you one-on-one to develop a holistic, personalized treatment plan to help you deal with the changes menopause brings. Here are a few therapies that often work well for her clients.
Stress Reduction and Lifestyle Changes
Stress reduction techniques are also effective in managing menopause symptoms. Naturopathic medicine practitioners can teach women relaxation techniques, such as meditation, yoga, and deep breathing, to help reduce stress and improve sleep.
NutritionÂ
Another treatment option is nutritional therapy. Naturopathic medicine practitioners can work with women to identify dietary deficiencies and make recommendations for nutrient-dense foods, supplements, and herbs that can help reduce menopause symptoms. For example, consuming more phytoestrogens found in soy and flaxseed may help balance hormone levels and reduce hot flashes.
Hormone Replacement Therapy
One treatment option for menopause is hormone replacement therapy (HRT). HRT involves taking synthetic hormones to replace the ones the body no longer produces after menopause. However, we suggest that bio-identical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) as a safer alternative to synthetic hormones. BHRT uses hormones that are chemically identical to those produced by the body, which can reduce the risk of side effects.
The Benefits of Naturopathic Medicine for Menopause
The benefits of working with Dr. Dae in relation to menopause are numerous. She treats the whole person, not just the symptoms, which means that women can experience long-term relief from their menopause symptoms. Additionally, naturopathic medicine is focused on preventing disease and optimizing health, which can lead to a happier, more vibrant life during and after menopause.
