The menopause is a rite of passage for all women. A woman is medically classed as having hit the menopause after 12 consecutive months wothout a bleed. For some, this is a fairly straightforward process but for others it turns into a nightmare - brain fog, anxiety, hot flushes, sleepless nights, low energy, low libido and painful intercourse. The whole process often starts many years before a woman is officially classed as menopausal and this time is called "peri menopause".
Most of the symptoms of the menopause can be addressed medically (HRT, pessaries, progesteron intake), Some women prefer a more natural approach through lifestyle changes and nutritional supplement.
