Guest guest Posted January 7, 2005 Report Share Posted January 7, 2005 Much more information is needed in order to help you. What are your symptoms exactly? How often do you experience sweating? Do you have night sweats? Do you have bleeding between periods or prolonged or excessive menstrual bleeding? This can be an indication of a uterine tumor. Are your periods erratic both in terms of length and amount of flow? Are you perhaps experiencing perimenopause, which is the first phase of menopause, or theearly symptoms of menopause, and should be treated differently? Do your estrogen levels fluctuate?Do you have breast tenderness, headaches,food cravings,irritability,forgetfulness,and how extensive are the mood swings? Exercise is extremely important especially for women in menopause, do you exercise, and what kind and how much? Just for your general information, here are vitamins and minerals that are extremely important for menopause... Vitamin E- reduces hot flashes and other symptoms of menopause. Calms anxiety, also eases vaginal dryness Vitamin C and the bioflavonoids hesperidin- Reduces leg cramps and bruising and hot flashes Calcium/magnesium- Many menopausal women, hell, many women and men in general are deficient in these two major minerals. Magnesium is needed for the body to assimilate calcium yet many people either don't know this, or forget it. These help prevent osteoarthritis, prevelant in menopausal women, and ease mental stress and anxiety. Bone loss during menopause is important to prevent. YOu need to use absorbable forms of calcium such as calcium gluconate, carbonate, or citrate. Remember the ideal for the body is a 2 to 1 ratio calcium to magnesium, so if you take 1000 mgs of calcium you need to take 500 mgs of calcium. B complex vitamins- These help to reduce water retention,combat fatigue nad prevent nervous and mental disorders. Niacin is very important as it helps the body metabolize proteins, carbohydrates and fats. Selenium- People do not get enough selenium in their dietsl. Selenium is most prevelant in Brazil nuts, which contain more selenium than any other food. Selenium helps to maintain normal hormonal function, it also brightens moods. Evening Primerose oil- This oil contributes to estrogen production and works as a sedative and a diuretic. IT also helps some women control hot flashes. Using flax seed oil with Evening primerose oil can help to maintain healthy cardiovascular wystem. As I said, these are just general reccomendations that most people lack in their diets. THe preferred method would be to get these through diet. IF you give the body the right tools, it will utilize them to fix, heal and repair. There are herbs and others treatments that can help.
