<p>Female hormone levels, namely oestrogen and progesterone, fluctuate during the lead up to menopause. This is linked with physical and emotional changes like hot flushes, night sweats, sleeplessness, irritability, fluctuating emotions, and changes in mood. And because these changes can be uncomfortable, this is a common time for women to seek natural menopause support.</p>
<h3>What is Menopause?</h3>
<p>Menopause signifies the time in life when the ovaries are no longer responding to the hormones that stimulate eggs to mature, and monthly ovulation stops. No ovulation means that there is no oestrogen or progesterone being produced by the ovaries. After menopause, the adrenal glands continue to produce both hormones but a much lower amount. Menopause can be officially confirmed once you have had 12 months with no period or bleeding.</p>
<h3>Herbal Perimenopause Supplements</h3>
<p>The time before menopause is called perimenopause, which lasts on average 4 years. During this transition these herbs can support female hormonal balance and perimenopausal symptoms:</p>
<ul>
<li>Dong Quai – supports feelings of calmness and relaxed sleep</li>
<li>Wild Yam - supports healthy mood</li>
<li>Black cohosh – helps support healthy temperature regulation</li>
<li>Red Clover – supports balanced emotions</li>
<li>Shatavari – supports healthy libido and healthy vaginal tissue moisture</li>
<li>Sage - provides support for hot flushes and night sweats</li>
</ul>

<h3>Nutrients to support perimenopause:</h3>
<ul>
<li>Calcium and Vitamin D support healthy bone density which naturally declines alongside oestrogen levels during perimenopause and after menopause.</li>
<li>Evening primrose oil can support the vaginal tissue as oestrogen declines, leading to more comfort during intimacy. See our <a href="https://www.healthpost.co.nz/health-concerns/womens-health/womens-libido-sexual-health/">Women’s Libido & Sexual Health</a> supplements for extra support.</li>
<li>Taking a B-complex or multivitamin for <a href="https://www.healthpost.co.nz/health-concerns/womens-health/womens-mood-stress-support/">Women’s Mood & Stress Support</a> can be very supportive during this time as hormonal fluctuations can lead to overwhelm.</li>
</ul>
<p>The good news is that natural menopause support isn’t just about supplements. Exercise has positive effects on mood, sleep, emotional wellbeing and is important to maintain bone density. Studies have shown that exercise, even just once per week, is associated with fewer menopausal symptoms.</p>
