    Such a common problem in perimenopause, thanks for this. I found also if I have big long gaps between meals I get this issue, lots of burping, so I eat little and often and that helps. I also find apple cider vinegar helps too. It mostly happens to me in weeks 3 & 4 of my cycle, likely due to falling estrogen. It can be very painful burping and palpitations.

      Hi
      Yes, changing hormones can affect the digestion and elimination. However, if this is constant then it is wise just to check with your doctor as well to rule out any other issues

      I see what you mean. Bloating and gas is a common symptom of a lot of diseases. It's always important to stay on top of cancer screening and if you are worried about any of these symptoms then it is a good idea to see your doctor.

    Hi I'm premenopausal 53. I'm loosing muscle mass. I can tell because my clothes are more loose and I'm loosing weight. My question is how can I firm and gain my weight back in a healthy way

    • @AvogelCoUk
      @AvogelCoUk  2 года назад

      Hi Sonia
      Unfortunately, the only way to build muscle mass is to exercise regularly and also do weights work. Most gyms now offer a free taster session with a coach to see what you need to do or you can find lots of online classes through RUclips.
      Also make sure that you are getting enough protein as muscles need plenty of this to stay in shape. If you are not keen on increasing meat or are vegetarian or vegan you can take a plant based protein powder shake every day - your local health shop should have good quality ones without sugar or artificial sweeteners.
      If you are worried about this then maybe check with your doctor too; a small number of women develop an overactive thyroid and this can often lead to weight loss.

    can you make a video about hair loss or do you have one already? i’ve been in menopause for 4 years, i take an estrogen pill every morning since i’m only 31. im starting to notice my hair is thinning & i loose big chunks of it all the time thru out the day. i don’t wear it in a pony tail anymore. only low clips to keep from pulling it extra. i haven’t been heat on it in since i’ve notice the loss. i’m trying to not stress but feel stressed everytime i think about it or have to throw hair away. 😬

      i take a multivitamin women’s one a day, do i take the milk thistle along with the vitamin in the morning or in the afternoon?

      @@dayrich Great to hear that you're feeling better now, if you're getting sweet/sugar/carb cravings you may find a Chromium supplement6 can be of benefit. With the Milk Thistle, you would take twice a day, if it's the liquid take before food but if it's a tablet you would take straight after food.

      Hi
      Digestive issue can be linked to the perimenopause but could also be just to do with diet. Why not try a low carb diet, this can often help bloating and is usually easy to follow for weight loss too!

      It may be a good idea to see a Nutritional Therapist, they can find out why this is happening and formulate a personalised treatment plan for you with support. If you are in the UK you can find local practitioners here www.BANT.org.uk
