WHAT IS MENOPAUSE?
Menopause, like
PMS, puberty, pregnancy, and post-partum are all different, yet entirely natural phases of a woman’s life. Rather than being seen as the end of “womanhood”, menopause should be embraced and celebrated in much the same way other rites of passage are. Indeed, perimenopause (the roughly 15 years from 35 to 50 when female hormones increasingly start to fluctuate), and menopause (that is one full year without menses), are transitions in every woman’s life, and though perimenopause and menopause may cause uncomfortable symptoms in some women, others report few to no symptoms at all.
A Lending Hand
Interestingly, as the ovaries start making fewer female hormones, our "backup system", adrenal glands, start to take over some of the roles of the failing ovaries. During this life stage, the adrenals produce a hormone called, androstenedione, which can convert to the most potent
estrogen, oestrone, via conversion that takes place in fat tissue. Androstenedione is also converted into testosterone and in turn, testosterone can undergo a process known as aromatisation, to convert into another form of estrogen called oestradiol. Since the source of precursor hormones for estrogen and testosterone and progesterone are produced by the adrenal glands, optimal adrenal health is critical during both menopause and post-menopause.
The Menopausal Years
Menopause is the permanent end of menstruation and fertility, occurring 12 months after your last period. Some women transition into menopause as early as their early 30’s, with most women enter menopause in their 40’s or 50’s (the average age in Canada is 51.4 years old). As our estrogen levels decline and fluctuate during the perimenopausal years, our normal hormone balance is disrupted, which is when certain menopausal symptoms start to manifest. The more unbalanced hormones become, the more intense symptoms can get, which is why so many women have recourse to Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT).
HRT are basically synthetic hormones that can be taken as estrogen-only or as a combination of estrogen and progestin (combined HRT). Combined HRT is most commonly used. It's important to note; however, that HRT is not without risk. And recent studies on the long-term use of HRT linked it to higher risks of unhealthy cell growth, heart attack, stroke, and other serious health problems. Fortunately, there exists a wide range of effective nutrients and herbals that can be used to support the female system, as well as ease the menopausal transition.
