How to help ourselves when entering menopause

Some of the therapies

Hormone replacement is a therapy given by some doctors in severe cases of climacteric problems, and it is a repeated intake of synthetic estrogen.

Although often effective, this treatment is controversial because it increases the risk of uterine cancer, hypertension, thrombosis and heart disease.

Sepia is very effective for depression and pulsatilla for hot flashes (yogic asanas).

A proper diet can help reduce climacteric and post-menopausal symptoms. Sometimes there is a calcium deficit due to a lack of ovarian hormones, and it needs to be compensated with extra calcium (milk and green vegetables) and vitamin D (sunbathing). This will keep the bones strong and prevent osteoporosis.

Deficiency of some proteins (especially tryptophan) occurs in depression, and can be exacerbated by a decrease in estrogen levels. A slight increase in protein in the diet will prevent depression of this cause, so the food should contain milk, lentils, soy, almonds, wheat, rice and other grains.

Yoga status

For women who practiced yoga at a young age, the physical discomforts of menopause are less intense, and the emotional disturbance is almost non-existent. As in all hormonal imbalances, yoga asanas have an extraordinary stabilizing effect.

Even if you have not done yoga before, it is never too late to start, and operations such as hysterectomy or others are not an obstacle.

Practicing “inverted” asanas, such as viparita karani mudra, sarvangasana, sirshasana, are very useful, especially if they are performed together with asanas in which the back bends backwards (for example bhudjangasana, grasshopper).

On the other hand, meditative exercises make it easier to confront fear, which can increase physical stress. They also provide inspiration for fruitful use for years to come. Many old women are very sensitive to meditative exercises – they have lived through many of their ambitions, and many of their attachments slowly, naturally fall away, so that they have fewer distractions during meditation.
