While Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) is effective and safe for many, there are some women who prefer to manage their menopause naturally through lifestyle changes.
A healthy diet and exercise along with stress management can help with overall wellbeing through menopause.

Taking time for you is essential so that you can feel your best, eat well, stay hydrated, incorporate exercise and prioritise sleep. Practising mindfulness techniques and deep breathing can help with stress management and anxiety. A balanced diet, rich in protein and calcium is advisable for muscle and bone health. Consuming too much alcohol, caffeine or spicy food can increase some symptoms of menopause, limiting these will have a positive effect on your symptoms. Factoring in regular, physical activity such as walking, yoga, swimming or strength training can reduce your stress levels, support weight management, improve your mood and help to maintain bone density.

Natural approaches to menopause can be effective, especially when used consistently. However if you would like further advice and guidance please contact us.
