Hot Flashes And Night Sweats
85 percent of menopausal women experience hot flashes. Hot flashes vary from the mild that pass quickly, to those that are most distressing and occur several times throughout the day and night.

During a hot flash, a woman perspires profusely. Her temperature rises, her heart beats faster and she may fell faint. Some women can sense a flash coming. Flashes usually lat only for a few seconds, followed by a cold feeling accompanied by shivering.

What You Can Do
* Wear loose, comfortable clothing made from natural fabrics.
* Carry with you cologne tissues for freshening up after the flash.
* If you are driving or working with dangerous machinery, stop what you are doing when you feel a flash coming on, as you may feel faint.
* A fan might make you feel more comfortable.
* Shower before going to bed so that you will be more comfortable at night.
* Limit hot soups, heavy meals, caffeinated drinks and crowded places as they may trigger hot flashes.
* Take things easy and learn relaxation exercises.
* Exercise regularly; women who exercise tends to have fewer flashes than those who don’t.
* If the hot flashes are severe and frequent, you should see your doctor. Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is usually considered.

Insomnia
It can be difficult to get to sleep if you are felling depressed or anxious (menopause aggravates underlying anxiety and depression), or if you are frequently interrupted by night sweats. It is also common to wake up early in the morning say about 2am or 3am and then toss and turn for the rest of the night.

What You Can Do
* Seek help from your doctor if you are anxious or depressed as these require specific treatment.
* Bring the night sweats under control so that you can sleep undisturbed. See your doctor about this.
* Make yourself a warm drink before going to bed ?it works wonders for some people.

Stop Suffering From Menopause. Find Relief Now! 

The symptoms of menopause are numerous and vary from mild to severe. The classic ones are irregular periods, hot flashes and night sweats.

Irregular Bleeding
This is usually the first sign of menopause. The erratic productions of hormones cause the menstrual cycle to be irregular. Some women experience a shorter cycle, menstruating every twenty days or so, others menstruate even less frequently ?perhaps once every six months.

The flow pattern also changes. Some bleed for fewer days while some may have a heavier flow. The commonest pattern is less bleeding, less often. At this stage, it is still possible to become pregnant so don’t throw contraceptive caution to the wind until a year or more after the last menstrual period.

What You Can Do
There is no cause for alarm as long as you are not bleeding heavily. If you are persistently having heavy periods, do see a doctor as it may be a symptom of something more serious and should be investigated.

What Is Menopause?

May 9th, 2008 by admin | No Comments | Filed in Menopause Treatment

Strictly speaking, menopause refers to the cessation of menstrual period. This is a date that can only be identified retrospectively, when you have not had a menstrual flow for 12 months.

However, menopause is commonly used to describe the time before and after this event when you experience a range of symptoms. This phase, also called the climacteric, is the time when ovarian functions and hormonal production decline resulting in many changes.
Menopause is not a disease. It is a natural physiologic state in a woman’s life, unless brought on surgically.

Diagnosing Menopause
The diagnosis is usually made on the basis of the symptoms. However, if there is any doubt, a simple blood test can be done to check the level of the hormones.
