If you’re looking for menopause natural treatment, naturopathic herbalist are a popular go-to. They serve as a holistic medicine for hormonal imbalances and alleviate common menopausal symptoms like insomnia and hot flushes. As well as the physical symptoms, the emotional toll is just as significant. Common mood changes experienced when undergoing menopause include anxiety, depression, and irritability, which often accompany poor sleep quality and fatigue. St John’s wort, used alone or blended with other herbs, may significantly decrease the physical symptoms of hot flushes as well as improve your mental mood. Herbs like chamomile and hops can help with sleeplessness as well as anxiety and stress.
As well as herbs offering some of the best natural remedies for menopause, other excellent and simple natural remedies for menopause include looking at a naturopathy diet plan. You should make sure it includes foods that are rich in calcium and vitamins, especially Vitamin D which can be found in foods like oily fish. Calcium-rich foods include dairy products and green leafy foods like kale and spinach. Both are linked to good bone health which is essential during menopause as hormonal changes during this period can cause bones to weaken, which heightens the risk of osteoporosis.
There are many menopause treatment options out there. Whilst one of the most common options to alleviate menopause symptoms is opting for hormone replacement therapy, it can be expensive and cause negative side effects and can prolong the inevitable process of declining oestrogen which the body is trying to go through. Natural remedies seek to alleviate menopause symptoms by making the transition more smooth, without hormones and may be more cost effective. Red clover is a popular go-to and is used as a herbal remedy for treating night sweats and hot flushes. It contains isoflavones that can weakly mimic oestrogen in the body and may improve the hormonal imbalances caused by menopause. Valerian root also offers various health benefits, including alleviating menopause symptoms like insomnia, hot flushes, and stress. If you’re looking to improve your sleep quality, try some valerian root tea to help you unwind before bed.
Using herbs as an alternative medicine for menopause symptoms is a therapeutic remedy, but if you are already taking medication, you should always consult with a professional first for guidance in case of side effects.
