Whether your focus right now is on PMS or MENOPAUSE or ANDROPAUSE (for men)….the following info is a “Worth Read”.
Let me begin by first saying that NO hormone replacement is better than taking good care of your overall health. If you eat right, keep moving and don’t try to carry the weight of the world on your shoulders….learn how to let go of stress as much as possible….most often, you won’t experience many or any of these problems. BUT if you do….Hormone Replacement Therapy may be something you may want to consider…starting off very, very slow while paying very close attention. Unfortunately, not a lot of us are willing to do that. They want to swallow or rub on the magic cream or pill but you have to know your body and be willing to pay closer attention to find your “sweet spot” or proper dosage.
WHAT is menopause? Mini-definition – cessation of menstrual cycle. It typically first becomes erratic and when it stops, our hormones can get a little “off” for a time. The stage leading up to this is Perimenopause .This is when the ups and downs can begin. Mood swings, irritability, sleep issues, memory disturbances, aching…the roller coaster ride can be tough! Perimenopause can begin these days as early 30’s and can last 5-10 years. STOP THE MADNESS! This simply does not have to be!!!
A change of diet is my first recommendation. Stop eating inflammatory foods like white flours, breads, etc and sugar. Eat only whole foods, not junk foods. The more organic you can eat the better. Stop eating meats with hormones and antibiotics in them adding to your individual “mix”. Stop drinking sodas (especially DIET) and drink more water. These things alone work wonders. Next, consider stopping dairy products and if you watch too much TV….start moving more…..exercise your brain more. GET BACK into the GAME OF LIFE. These changes alone are usually enough.
When that is NOT enough….have some blood work done or saliva testing completed on your hormones. See where or what you are deficient in and begin to work with a health practitioner or Doctor that understands that one SIZE truly does not fit all. One that recognizes the human body is created magnificently and one that can re-design and come back to life given the right ingredients.
The complaint I hear most from women is, “I just don’t feel right anymore, I’m not me anymore.” Their periods are usually erratic at this stage of the game. Estrogen may or may not be too low…progesterone typically is. Again…everyone is different.
Many times, adding some progesterone (real not synthetic) is all the help some need. It is the primary building block for all other steroid hormones. Many times women are estrogen dominant due to their low progesterone levels and progesterone can often be the needed re-balance. Sometimes the imbalance between estrogen and progesterone may cause or promote medical conditions such as fat gain, water retention, decreased sex drive, fatigue, depression, fibrocystic breasts, hair loss, headaches, insomnia, osteoporosis, breast cancer and uterine cancer.
I offer ProgesterAll crème by Dr. John Lee. It’s fragrance free and it contains 20 milligrams of USP Natural Progesterone. It has a unique liposome-mediated delivery system that will ensure rapid absorption into your skin so that they can be stored in the underlying fatty tissues for transmission to your bloodstream.
