Menopause:

Menstruating woman between the ages of 40 and 55 are naturally approaching menopause. Lowered production of the female sex hormones estrogen and progesterone cause these signs of menopause. Menopause is defined after a period of 12 months without any menses.

Signs and symptoms:

Symptoms of menopause may begin suddenly and be very noticeable, or they may be very mild at first. Symptoms may happen most of the time once they begin, or they may happen only once in a while. Some women notice changes in many areas and most of the symptoms are due to a deficiency of estrogen. Some menopausal symptoms, such as moodiness, are similar to symptoms of premenstrual syndrome (PMS). Others may be new to you. For example:

• Your periods have stopped for at least one year
• You might have hot flashes and problems sleeping
• You might experience mood swings or be irritable
• You might experience vaginal dryness, making sex uncomfortable or painful
• You may have less interest in sex and it may take longer for you to get aroused
• You may experience increased abdominal weight gain – thickening of the waist
• Your skin may thin and change due to the lower estrogen.
• Your memory may change due to lower estrogen – especially for names and items.

Other possible changes are not as noticeable. For example, you might begin to lose bone density because you have less estrogen, increasing the risk of osteoporosis. Changing estrogen levels can also raise cholesterol levels and increase your risk for heart disease ad stroke and the lowered levels of estrogen and are also linked to increased risk of Alzheimer’s disease.  

Recommendations for Menopause:

1. Blood testing which may include tests such as a cholesterol panel, complete thyroid panel, hormone testing, vitamin D, vitamin B12, and more – all of the factors that help you to age well after entering menopause. Included in this kit is Clear Detox -Hormonal Health, specifically for the balancing of estrone and protecting breast health. 
2. Once the testing has been done we may handle the declining levels of estrogen and progesterone with Bioidentical Hormone replacement in the form of estrogen cream, progesterone cream. Vaginal suppositories of estrogen can also be very helpful for dryness and urinary urgency, if you do not want to use hormones, herbs like Red clover, Hops, Black Cohosh, Don Quai and Sage, the ingredients in Clear Estrogen.
3. Strength Training is recommended to maintain your bones – half an hour three times a week. At Clear Medicine our trainers use this form of training so that you can learn how to exercise to build strength, bones and to prevent the spike in cortisol or suppression of thyroid function. Walking should be combined with this – one hour a day 4 – 6 days a week. 
4. Diet – The Supercharged Hormone Diet and The Hormone Boost books are suggested for you. 
5. The majority of women who enter menopause experience elevated levels of cortisol due to the sleep disruption and hormonal changes of this phase of life. Our recommended adrenal support for menopause is Clear Cortisol because it contains Relora, that helps to lower cortisol and raise our anti-aging hormone DHEA as well as Theanine, the extract from green tea that helps to induce the alpha brain waves that is associated with meditation and improved mental focus. In essence, this formula calms both the body and the mind.
6. Use a plant-based omega – like Pure Form Omega – it can assist hormone balance and some studies suggest that plant-based omegas may be more beneficial for supporting bone density than marine-based supplements. 
7. Take a formula for bone health 
8. B12 for brain and bone health
