Menopause is a significant life phase where hormone levels decline, often bringing symptoms such as sleep disturbances, hot flashes, and cognitive changes. Dr Nirusha’s integrative approach focuses on addressing these changes holistically, using nutrition, lifestyle adjustments, and hormone support to bring relief and restore balance.
Menopause marks the end of menstruation and fertility, typically occurring around age 51. It is defined as 12 consecutive months without a menstrual period. Hormonal shifts, particularly the decline of oestrogen and progesterone, trigger symptoms such as hot flushes, night sweats, mood changes, and vaginal dryness. For many women, these changes can feel overwhelming, but they are manageable with the right approach.
Many women are seeking natural, evidence-based alternatives to alleviate symptoms safely and effectively. Through a combination of nutrition, lifestyle changes, targeted supplementation, and stress management, it’s possible to reduce symptoms and restore balance without relying solely on medication. Self-help measures such as phytoestrogens (e.g., flaxseed, soy), magnesium for sleep support, and omega-3 fatty acids for reducing inflammation can be beneficial. However, it's crucial to work with a practitioner to personalise these interventions for optimal results.
