- Feeling exhausted all the time? The menopause can really take its toll on the body, so fatigue is a common symptom that many women find particularly difficult to fix. Today I’m talking about my top 5 tips to beat menopausal fatigue. Watch or read all about this on my latest blog post here: www.avogel.co.uk/health/menop...
The best channel on you tube with straight forward advice. No doctor would give you this advice... they would just look at you like you had two heads 🧡

Brain shrinking from dehydration: indeed! Once I went for a bike ride without any money and lost my water bottle. It was a hot, sunny day. By the time I got home, I had a massive headache in the middle of my head. While I was only in my late 20s then, I can still remember the pain in my head! Very worth avoiding...
I am experiencing crashing fatigue, it hits in the afternoon.i find it very hard to admit defeat and take a nap.a lady my age, works ten hours a day, then does karate, then drives her kids to hockey practice and always has cup cakes on hand that she baked from scratch.on top of it she is always in a good mood and postive.i admire her and feel jealous.
My advice: Focus on yourself, comparing ourselves to others has no meaning. I am proud of having an afternoon nap whenever I can (i.e. when I am at home and not at work). You are a unique individual, with unique needs and strengths. You deserve to take care of yourself. Plus... cupcakes are not good for our health :)
I struggle with comparison too..it leads no where good, I know, but it's a bad habit.
It leads to self-pityand self- rejecting thoughts which are such the opposite of what is helpful.
Our world promotes competition from early on, so we are pushed in that direction unless we are aware we don't want to give into that kind of thinking, which requires unprograming and conscious choice to not devalue ourselves.
I hope we both give ourselves the gift of self appreciation and compassion while we patiently work towards being our best us.
There is only one you, and you are the best you out here. No one else can do you!
Many people struggle with this, you aren't alone.
I appreciate your honesty in admitting this real feeling.
Nap.
She sounds tetrified not to be petfect, actually.
Don't believe all you see. Look after you as you need.

@Joann Missy thanks for describing what's in the vid. Basically nothing new!
Im so grateful that i found your channel
Me too have found this channel so helpful
I became hyperthyroid around menopause. Feel so weak and drained that everyone around me is worried. Doctor wants to wait it out and treat with medications till the hormones stabilise.
Thank you for all this good information. I always look forward to new videos. I also replay the same ones over n over bcoz I'm sure I miss something important. I also want to ADD that prayer to God in Heaven in Jesus Name is very important. He can help us in this STRUGGLE. ♥️🙏
I am so drained i just want to sleep this is interfering with my life work and being a mom i have a 12 and 14 year old i feel defeated
Hi Cherilynn
Hopefully, the tips above will be of help but if you are on the go the whole time then it is not surprising you are getting fatigued! However, I would get a general check -up from your doctor if you can just to make sure there are no other health issues. Low iron, low thyroid function, low vitamin D and B12 can all appear and cause fatigue.
This may be a silly comment, but I really love and admire your clothing choices..elegant and colorful, very feminine too! I love to see what you wearing each video..plus, love the scarves!
Hi Trisha
Thank you for your lovely comments! I got my ‘colours’ done a number of years ago and it has made such a difference to my colour co-ordination and shopping is so easy now as I know which colours to avoid! Having a ‘colour party’ is a great way to learn what suits you (even hair colour and make up) and is a nice evening with a few friends and, maybe, a bottle or two of wine!!
See here for more info and what it entails although you may be able to find an independent operator who charges less in your area. www.colourmebeautiful.co.uk/services-for-women/groups-parties/
I love scarves so usually end up buying a few when I am on holiday abroad and also charity shops are a great source; I can wear some for a while, gift them back then buy some more!
@@AvogelCoUk Thanks, Fantastic ideas! Those little joys in life really do add up. Like colors, and a few friends and delightful scarves!
Have a blessed day!
Quite lovely indeed

Hi very good job superb ♥️
I have so much feeling different lately, always sluggish, feeling irritated, always not in the mood!! And depression.
Hi
If you feel that you may be suffering from depression, please do speak to your doctor, unfortunately, for this most over the counter remedies are not going to be potent enough to help, sorry.

Thank you so much dear Eileen !
I would just like to know .... when hormones hopefully start to “settle in” after a few years, do you know women who really got better? Who find natural energy again?
Which healthy fats do you recommend? Thank you again! Kind regards 🍀
Hello, symptoms should begin to tail off eventually, although every women is different due to diet, health and lifestyle factors. A diet containing Omega 3-fats can be very beneficial for women during the menopause.
Would it be helpful if I start calcium and vitamin D.or if I need vitamin B12 would it be a good idea to have an A-Z vitamin pill ? really appreciate your help.many thanks.
Hi
A good, quality high strength multivit can be a great idea. I would ask at your local health shop; they can advise on a suitable one for your particular needs.
Hi , I am so thankful I have started seeing your videos ...
I crave a lot for sugar foods and have a sweet tooth.... But since some time I have realised I start sweating and I feel I get hot flashes imm..can u explain me on this ..
Hi Disha
Glad to hear that you found us!
Eating high sugar foods can quickly push your blood sugar levels up, then they often 'crash' quickly and it is this crash which can trigger flushes. You should find that if you avoid high sugar foods that the flushes will decrease too!

I noticed after my period I exercised and the fatigue came on really bad but I think I need to increase my Iron intake and B vitamin
Hi Marina
Hopefully, that will help. If you feel really fatigued after exercise, this can indicate that you are doing too much and that your body can't cope with that amount of energy expenditure. Maybe try doing less for a few weeks and see if that makes a difference.
I just checked the recommended dose on my new vitamins and I hadn't been taking the right amount ! So drowsy lately.
Omg i get bouts of seriously crushing fatigue a recent blood test showed i have no progesterone and estrogen left
What does that mean
Thanks a lot!
What multi vit. Do you recommend. My joints are extremely swollen & I have chronic fatigue brain fog. Thks for your 5 tips.
Hi Irene
I would suggest an over 50s multivit (even if you are not over 50!) as these usually have a good combination of vits and minerals and I would also add in a separate calcium and magnesium for the bones. Remember to drink lots of water as dehydration can cause these symptoms too!

@@AvogelCoUk THKS. IM A FRONTLINER IN THIS PANDEMIC. WORKING 12HR NIGHT SHIFTS & RESTLESS..ANXIETY HIGH & TIRED BUT FIDGETY..IM 57 Y/ O ...I HAVENT HAD A PERIOD FOR 6MO SO IM NOT SURE IF THIS IS MENOPAUSE
Hi Irene
We do know that both physical and emotional stress can have a huge impact on the hormones but, at 57, it is possibly the start of the menopause. You can ask your doctor for a hormone test to see what's going on.
I started Menopause at 44.
Hii. Love your show .. should I take testosterone and how much should I take?
Hi Maria
Thank you!
This is something you would need to ask your doctor as they would have to prescribe it for you. They can test to see if you need it and also how much.

Im glad I found you. & maybe my Menopause fairy will leave me alone. Lol

nothing very new here in this vid, sad to say. I can share some things that helped me: 1) hemp seed, packed full of targeted nutrition that the body readily absorbs 2) maca powder (potassium, cured my need for afternoon naps)3) Arborvitae Juice to banish joint stiffness - it works by reducing inflammation, the most common problem we all have and 4)fermented foods - I won't say google it, I will say search on Ecosia (that's a search engine that plants trees and doesn't sell your data :) ....but, I am still searching for ways to improve adrenal function, which is rather low due to a long period of chronic stress. So, still some way to go yet... good luck everyone
Hi Pip
Thank you for your helpful tips. You could check out a book called Are You Tired and Wired by Marcelle Pick; it's all about treating Adrenal Fatigue naturally. You can get this from Amazon.

Still working at 60 is causing my fatigue. I am exhausted.
Ok, so basic, what if I’m already doing this and beyond and still too tired?
Hi Barbie
If these basic tips aren't helping you then it is best to check with your doctor just to rule out other health issues that can cause fatigue such as low iron, low thyroid function, low vitamin D or B12.

Mam, what abt hysterectomy patients
You can often follow the same lifestyle tips and supplements. Acupuncture can often help with symptoms from a hysterectomy so worth looking into.

This makes it very hard to exercise when I exercised the other day I had this exhaustion I can't explain that came along with lightheadedness and nausea
Hi Marina
We do advise that if you are experiencing ongoing fatigue that it is wise to decrease exercise until you feel your energy increasing. Gentle exercises such as Hatha Yoga are often of benefit at this time. Lightheadedness and/or nausea during or after exercise often indicates that blood sugars have taken a tumble, you may find that having a good protein/fat snack about 45 min before hand can help to keep this at bay. Also remember to drink plenty of water whilst exercising as dehydration can be another culprit!
@@AvogelCoUk Thank you i have been cutting down a lot on food even smaller potions than I am accostom to because of my weight but I think I have not been drinking enough water. I have since put an app to remind to drink water every hour. Your a blessing thanks for holding our hand through this.
You're welcome :)
@@AvogelCoUk Omg..the nausea is killing me..loss of appetite and weight loss. I need a serious boost
No sounds😊
