Menopause - a new beginning!

Menopause is defined in the Dictionary as "a cessation of menstruation".

As a word and definition, nothing could be more incomplete and misleading. In Ancient times, a woman who had passed through this stage of her life was regarded as a Wise Woman. In many civilisations she was revered and even worshipped. In today's society, this final and fulfilling stage of a woman's life is looked upon with dread and loathing. It is regarded as an end of life instead of what it really is - a great new beginning.

Vainly, oestrogen is heaped on to this woman in an effort to keep her "young", not realising that a woman, entering the menopause years, is fulfilling her full promise as a woman. Most treatments focus on replacing the oestrogen or progesterone that is now not being produced by the body.

In fact, during the transition period, not only the adrenal but all the other glands in the endocrine system take over and create, in the body, a very different mix for the post-menopausal woman. The woman who emerges from Menopause is different and has other things to be and do. The body recognises this and does not need to be fed hormones needed for a younger person but a mix of natural herbs that will help her body through the change.

Her whole endocrine system needs to be nourished so that it will fulfil its purpose. Modern diets, water, air and exercise do not, however, prepare the body for the change. Modern food does not contain enough of the much needed ingredients to help the endocrine system. Consequently, some modern woman have some or all of several unpleasant symptoms such as hot flashes, fibroids, emotional swings, headaches, aching joints, sleep disturbances and even incontinence.

There are various Herbal Supplements and Remedies that can be used which contain the much needed natural and organic substances not found in modern food, which are needed to help the Menopause Woman in her transition to the most fulfilling and creative part of a woman's life.
