Menopause, or the permanent end of menstruation and fertility, is a natural biological process, not a medical illness.
Even so, the physical and emotional symptoms of menopause can disrupt your sleep, sap your energy and - at least indirectly - trigger feelings of sadness and loss.
It doesn't have to be. You don't have to have:
* annoying mood swings including crying jags
* being prone to anger most of the time
* hot flashes during the day
* night sweats and wet sheets at night
* an inability to focus
* a significant loss of short-term memory
* uncomfortable gas and bloating
* abnormal weight gain
You can ease into it and you can breeze through it.
Are you experiencing?
Tiredness?
Loss of sleep?
Feeling chilled?
Anxiety and/or panic attacks?
Muscles achy?
Mental sluggishness?
Moody?
These can also be symptoms of a sluggish thyroid.
If you aren't sure what your symptoms are from, it's best to contact your medical adviser.
Self diagnosis is often way off base from the true problem.

It's Natural
