Menopause treatment

Going through menopause can be a challenging time for many women. As estrogen levels decline, it often brings unpleasant symptoms that disrupt daily life. The good news is, with proper treatment and care from experts like our menopause hormone specialists here at Vitality Hormone Clinic, you can find relief and restore balance.

Understanding Menopause and Associated Changes

Menopause officially occurs when a woman has gone 12 consecutive months without a period. It marks the end of fertility and menstruation. The transition usually starts between the ages of 45-55.

This natural transition comes with shifts in hormone production that commonly trigger unwanted symptoms. Some key points:

Decrease in Estrogen

• Estrogen drops sharply leading up to and during menopause


• Vital for regulating menstruation and keeping bones, skin, hair, and more healthy


• Decline contributes to most menopausal issues like hot flashes, vaginal dryness, etc

Changes in Other Hormones

• Progesterone, testosterone and others also decline


• Contributes to issues like low libido, mood changes, weight gain

Perimenopause Phase

• The 2-10 years leading up to last period


• Hormone fluctuations intensify symptoms

Postmenopause Phase

• Starts 12 months after final menstrual cycle


• Hormones levels out, but health issues may persist

The wide variety of possible menopausal symptoms include:

• Hot flashes and night sweats


• Vaginal dryness and discomfort


• Increased urgency to urinate


• Trouble sleeping


• Emotional changes like mood swings, irritability, anxiety


• Lack of focus and memory issues


• Weight gain and slowed metabolism


• Thinning hair and skin changes


• Low libido


• Joint pain and musculoskeletal issues
